“No one in Manchester is tough!” said Pietersen replying to Yuvraj’s “Tough men do” post. Pietersen’s reply could as well be the reply to Yuvraj, who trolled the former England skipper following United’s 4-0 rout of Chelsea in the opening weekend of the Premier League. “Hey mr @KP24 very quiet today all ok @ManUtd,” the stylish left-hander had tweeted trolling Pietersen for his team’s thrashing defeat.

Meanwhile, Newcastle teenager Matthew Longstaff scored the winning and only goal of the match. The younger of the Longstaff brothers, who was making his league debut for the senior boyhood club, further compounded United’s misery with a classic strike from outside the box in the 72ns minute to lead his die to victory.
