And on Saturday afternoon, the full game will be shown as live on United's official YouTube channel, in association with crypto trading platform StormGain.
Papiss Cissé scored twice to keep the Magpies in the hunt for European football, but that was only half the story as Andy Carroll made a return to St. James' Park following his record-breaking move to Merseyside and another former favourite, José Enrique, ended up going in goal for the visitors after Pepe Reina was sent off for clashing with James Perch.
Enrique had left United a few months earlier - and the home fans revelled in their team's performance and three well-deserved points which kept Newcastle above Kenny Dalglish's Reds in the Premier League table.
Due to the coronavirus outbreak, the Premier League is currently suspended and Newcastle haven't played since winning 1-0 at Southampton back in early March.
But United have aimed to fill the void by showing classic matches from the archives on YouTube, with the famous 5-0 win against Manchester United from 1996, the thrilling 4-4 draw with Arsenal from 2011, the 8-0 win over Sheffield Wednesday in Sir Bobby Robson's first home match in charge and the 4-1 derby win over Sunderland from 2006 being watched by hundreds of thousands of supporters.
Last time out, the 6-0 win over Aston Villa from August 2010 proved to be another hit with fans.
This weekend, we'll again be showing bonus pre-match and post-match content, starting from 2.45pm (BST) on Saturday.
The match will begin at 3pm (BST), and as well as watching the whole match supporters can also join in the conversation with other fans.
