Manchester United captain Harry Maguire singled out three teammates after their 1-1 draw at Newcastle.

The centre-back sang the praises of goalkeeper David De Gea, who made several important saves to deny the hosts and keep the game level.

"David's on great form at the minute," said Maguire. "In big moments, it always seems to be, late on in games, that he's always there to produce for us."

With Newcastle in the lead at half-time, manager Ralf Rangnick altered his formation and made two substitutions, with Mason Greenwood and Fred being replaced by Edinson Cavani and Jadon Sancho. These changes had the desired impact, with Cavani netting the equaliser, and Maguire praised the Uruguayan.

"He's come on and made a big impact and I think you've seen in the first 30 minutes of the second half especially, it was probably our best spell in the game.

"Credit to them [Sancho and Cavani] for making that change in tempo and intensity."
