Man United lose at Newcastle as William Osula strikes 12 years after winning Man United's Soccer Schools skills final

William Osula, who once won a skill competition arranged by Manchester United, returned to haunt the Red Devils as his 90th-minute goal resulted in a 2-1 defeat for Man United at St. James Park. This was also Man United's first loss under interim manager Michael Carrick, who started with six wins and one draw.

It was a chaotic game in which Jacob Ramsey was sent off in the first half's added time after diving and earning a second yellow card. Despite the red card setback, Anthony Gordon soon won a penalty in the added time after a clash with Man United captain Bruno Fernandes, and converted it to make it 1-0 for Newcastle.

William Osula's old Man United connection

Adding more drama before the halftime break was Fernandes' cross, which found Casemiro in the box. The Brazilian headed in the equaliser at 45+9.

However, it was Newcastle who had the last laugh after Danish forward Osula came off the bench to score a brilliant solo goal in the 90th minute.

Interestingly, the 22-year-old Osula has an old Man United connection. The FC Copenhagen academy product, Osula, was the winner of Man United's Soccer Schools skills final at the Old Trafford stadium in 2014.

He has now returned after 12 years to haunt them with a memorable goal in the English Premier League.

The social media post of United honouring Osula in 2014 is currently going viral, highlighting how the unpredictable often becomes the norm in the sporting world.

Meanwhile, Man United's Carrick lambasted his players after failing to beat 10-man Newcastle.

"We're not happy with the way we played the game tonight," said Carrick. "I don't think it was the 10 men. We just didn't play good enough tonight. We can't make any excuses for that.

"They deserved to win tonight... tonight hurts, because we don't like losing games, but we'll be better for the next one."
