11 Surprising Stats From Man Utd 0-0 Newcastle United

0 - Saves Made By Manchester United Keeper Sergio Romero

The Magpies may have come close to scoring on at least a couple of occasions on Saturday, but they never once actually forced Sergio Romero to make a save. Aleksandar Mitrovic thundered a header off the Manchester United goalkeeper's bar, while Florian Thauvin was inches away from meeting Papiss Cisse's low cross at the end of the game, but the Argentine skipper enjoyed his third-straight clean sheet in the Premier League. Newcastle had seven shots, but not a single one was on target. Man Utd, meanwhile, saw eight of their 20 efforts saved by Tim Krul.
