Play by play
- 94'
<b>Newcastle 0-0 Man Utd.</b> What threatened to be an electric, end-to-end game really fizzled out, especially in the second half. I feel sorry for referee Lee Ptobert because I reckon Sir Alex may not be able to resist a dig after that late penalty refusal. There's hope for the chasing pack with Man Utd seven points ahead of Arsenal now. Thanks for tuning in folks and be sure to return for Spurs v Arsenal on Wednesday.

Just a minute to go and it's got 0-0 written all over it.

I think Danny Simpson may be a lucky boy there, not sure how much intent there was in terms of cheating from Chicharito.

Good battling for Carrick in midfield to set Valencia away. His cross is too deep for Owen and Rooney though.

O'Shea has it on the right and crosses for Giggs, who turns and once again spoons his shot wide.

Lovely bit of movement from Owen sees some space open up.

What a reception form the Newcastle fans. A terrible one that is. Boos ring around St James' Park for the former striker, who left the club after their relegation in 2009.

Nani takes it into the area with Gutierrez in close attendance but he manages to get a shot away. It didn't curl quite as much as he wanted though and was never troubling Krul.

Free-kick on the edge of the box. Rooney and Nani eye it up.
