They think the wait’s all over. It is now. 69 years and 313 days of hurt end for Newcastle United. And 10 nerve-shredding minutes of added time. Finally, finally Newcastle get their hands on a domestic trophy. Praise deserves to be spread around. Their fans superb, wall of sound, total support. Joelinton pressed, blocked and covered every blade of grass. Livramento stifled Salah. Trippier all defiance, tackling, set-pieces and game-management. Tonali tamed Szoboszlai. Burn towering presence. Pope’s saves. Isak clinical. Bruno relentless.
Above all, this historic victory was rooted in the drive and nous of Eddie Howe. His man-management brings the best out of Tonali and others. His deep understanding of players saw him re-position Joelinton from attack to elite midfielder. He makes good players better, Burn etc. He recruits strong characters as well as players. He builds camaraderie, he builds strong teams. He becomes the first Englishman to lift a trophy since 2008 (Harry Redknapp, FA Cup). Eddie Howe 🏆🙌 #NUFC #LIVNEW #EFLCupFinal
