Beaten Mourinho able to admire Newcastle's 'beautiful' victory over United

Jose Mourinho praised the manner of Newcastle's unlikely Premier League victory over Manchester United as "a beautiful thing".

The relegation-threatened Magpies scrapped their way to a 1-0 win at St James' Park on Sunday courtesy of Matt Ritchie's 65th-minute strike, although they were indebted to fine goalkeeping from debutant Martin Dubravka and some last-ditch defending as the visitors launched an onslaught.
