Man Utd boss Moyes only concentrating on Newcastle game

Manchester United boss David Moyes is not looking ahead to next week's Champions League second leg tie against Bayern Munich until after Saturday's game at Newcastle. He said: "My focus is only on Newcastle. It's important to keep trying to build some momentum and get the three points. We also have an extra day's recovery this week, as we play Bayern on Wednesday.

"The message to the players is the next game is the most important one and that's Newcastle."

Moyes also remains upbeat following their first leg draw with the German champions on Tuesday.

He added: "It was a terrific performance and an all-round good night at Old Trafford, possibly one of the best nights I have ever been involved with in football because of the football, atmosphere and standard of opposition.

"We were good tactically, a bit disappointed with the result but overall happy - although I would have preferred 0-0 than 1-1."
