Manchester United fans sang the praises of their heroes as the Red Devils won their first title under Erik Ten Hag with a 2-0 victory over Newcastle United at Wembley.

Casemiro opened the scoring with a header off Luke Shaw’s freekick before Rashford’s tame effort from a Wout Werghorst pass was deflected wickedly in over Loris Karius.

Newcastle United pushed relentlessly to get back in the game but could not breach the staunch United defence.

Newcastle’s wait for silverware, stretching back to 1969, goes on after two goals inside six minutes in the first half established Manchester United’s superiority and set them on their way to a first trophy under manager Erik ten Hag – the club’s first since 2017 when lifting the Europa League under Jose Mourinho, and also winning this competition in the same campaign.

Manchester United’s renaissance under Ten Hag now has tangible reward in the shape of a trophy, with the power to add more this season.
