Newcastle 0 - 3 Manchester United: United accept early goal gifts
Manchester United secured their fifth win in seven Premier League games as victory at Newcastle sent them second.
Starting the day seven points adrift of leaders Chelsea, it was vital for the visitors to pick up three points, and two headers from corners in the first 15 minutes set them on their way.
Jonny Evans was first to make the net bulge before fellow defender Patrice Evra repeated the trick moments later.
Tom Cleverley made it 3-0 when he curled the ball into the top corner.
The midfielder might have been trying to find Robin van Persie at the far post, but the ball flew out of the reach of home keeper Steve Harper and into the goal.
While the goal may have had a touch of good fortune, there was nothing lucky about the Old Trafford club’s overall display.
Sir Alex Ferguson’s men were rampant in the opening quarter, helped by some amateur Newcastle defending at set-pieces, and twice went close before the first goal.
Danny Welbeck, who played furthest forward in a three-man attack featuring Wayne Rooney and Van Persie, was first to try his luck but struck a woefully tame shot from six yards.Sir Alex Ferguson was a happy man as he watched Manchester United take full advantage of Newcastle’s generosity to climb into second place in the Barclays Premier League.
United were handed a flying start as the Magpies’ makeshift defence crumbled horrifically on two occasions inside the opening 16 minutes to allow first Jonny Evans and then Patrice Evra to head home.
Alan Pardew’s men rallied in determined fashion and might have been back in the game five minutes into the second half, but Demba Ba’s header came back off the bar and Papiss Cissé’s follow-up was clawed on to the post by keeper David de Gea with the home contingent claiming the ball had crossed the line.
But Tom Cleverley’s 71st-minute strike from long range ensured the visitors avenged their 3-0 defeat at St James’ Park last season in fine style.
Goal Messi Free Kick Barcelona 2 - 2 Real Madrid HD 07/10/2012
Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo continued their remarkable goal scoring duel as the pair each scored twice inBarcelona's draw with Real Madrid.
Ronaldo squeezed a shot in at the near post on 23 minutes to set a new record for scoring in consecutive El Clasicos. Karim Benzema hit the post two minutes later, but Messi got his first after Pepe misjudged a ricochet in the box.
The Argentine scored his 10th of the season from a 25-yard free-kick but Ronaldo tucked in Mesut Ozil's pass. Martin Montoya, on for Dani Alves, almost won it for the hosts late on when he struck a curling shot against the bar.
And prior to that Messi, 25, could have completed a hat-trick but fired wide following Jordi Alba's cutback. Madrid should have been 2-0 up within two minutes as the ball was fed to Benzema, again unmarked, but he scuffed a shot against the post from 12 yards, with Angel Di Maria missing the follow-up.
Dani Alves had left plenty of room for Ronaldo's goal and the full-back was replaced, clutching his hamstring, by Montoya in a nightmare spell for the hosts. Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo were both in scintilating form as Barcelona and Real Madrid played out an enthralling 2-2 draw at Camp Nou in the first Liga Clasico of this season.
Despite coming as just the seventh fixture of the season, the match was touted as having a potentially huge impact on the final Liga outcome. With Madrid in need of a win, Ronaldo got them off to the perfect start as he silenced the crowd with his sixth consecutive Clasico goal.
But a brace from Messi, including a sumptuous second-half free kick, put the Blaugrana in the driving seat. However, the last had not been heard of Ronaldo and he capitalised on a disorganised defence to equalise 25 minutes from time.

Atlanta Braves' Infield Fly Rule vs. Cardinals (Fans Throwi
The Cardinals just beat the Braves in the first-ever National League wild-card game, but it will go down in history for a different reason.
In the bottom of the eighth inning, Cardinals shortstop Pete Kozma drifted back into left field, and well, here it is:ust like last year, the Braves lost out on a spot in the NL division series to the St. Louis Cardinals. Only this time, Atlanta was knocked out with the help of what will be remembered as one of the most disputed infield fly calls in baseball history.
Trailing by three runs, the Braves would have had the bases loaded with one out in the eighth inning. Instead they had runners on second and third with two outs, didn't score again and lost 6-3 Friday night in baseball's first, one-and-done, wild-card playoff game.
Just like that, the focus shifted from Chipper Jones' impending retirement and the end of Kris Medlen's winning streak to a call that led to a 19-minute delay caused by enraged fans throwing debris and a protest by Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez.
Andrelton Simmons' fly ball into shallow left field fell between shortstop Pete Kozma and left fielder Matt Holliday, sparking the furor. Just before the ball dropped, left field umpire Sam Holbrook raised his arm to signal an infield fly, meaning Simmons was out.
The call was later than is usual on an infield fly, a rule designed to prevent fielders from deliberately letting balls fall in attempts for a double play. This ball landed at least 50 feet beyond the infield.
