Manchester United beat Newcastle United to win Carabao Cup

Manchester United beat Newcastle United to win Carabao Cup



No Newcastle! No Newcastle! No Newcastle fan wanted to miss out on this. A first Wembley final this century. But they land a first major trophy in 68 years. In their tens of thousands they came in hope. Listen to this as they come out to the tunnel of Wembley. For an occasion they lost hope of experiencing again. But 16 months under Saudi ownership and more than 200 million pounds in transfers has transformed the Magpies.

If only their early chances had found the net. If only they weren't facing a Manchester United side also resurgent. If only they weren't relying on a goalkeeper playing for the first time in two years. This has stretched too far for Loris Karius. And soon a second. Oh it's deflected and in! From Marcus Rashford's shot. I've got a group of it now! Deflation felt from the terraces to the tine.

How could they turn it around? It became about damage limitation. When the second comes onto it this has taken the kick out for the corner. The Leacup final ending in a 2-0 defeat. Eric Tenhog has his first trophy! So no first domestic cup since 1955 for Newcastle. But with Saudi backing surely it won't be decades again before the club is back in a final. For now it's Manchester United celebrating the end of a trophy drought after six years. Newcastle hope this will soon be them.

But it's Manchester United with the Leacup dreaming of bigger prizes again. Rob Harris Sky News, Wembley.
