Newcastle defender Burn: We've always disliked Man Utd fans

Newcastle United defender Dan Burn enjoyed taking a dig at Manchester United fans after Sunday's win.

Newcastle dominated for the 2-0 triumph.

Burn later said: "Really special. For a long time we've always disliked Man Utd as Newcastle fans. We owed them one. It was good to get a win today.

"Desperate [to beat them]. Over the seasons we've always wanted to beat Man Utd. Great performance from the lads. Delighted to get the win and clean sheet."

On marking Antony and Marcus Rashford, he added: "Tough players, world-class players. Antony has given us a few good games. To have that extra emotion as a fan, especially at home, comes out sometimes, maybe a bit much.

"Hopefully [they can get into the Champions League]. Big result today. Going into the last 11 games we have a really good chance."
