๐ฅ All of the best bits from Newcastle's fantastic EFL Cup final win ๐ฅ
Newcastle United ended English football's most infamous trophy drought, defeating Liverpool 2-1 to win the EFL Cup at Wembley on Sunday.
And after a 70 year wait, you just knew the Toon Army would celebrate like few others.
Here's all the best bits from their day of days.
Their first goal came from Dan Burn on the stroke of half time, the local lad becoming the first player to score in a cup final for the Magpies since 1976. Just look at what it meant to him.

The boy from Blyth saved his best party trick for the dressing room celebrations, capping off an incredible week for the 32-year-old, who will now join up with the England squad for the first time.

From an unlikely first scorer to an obvious second scorer, Alexander Isak once again proved why he is arguably the best striker in the Premier League with a fine strike early into the second half.
The Geordies were starting to believe.

Federico Chiesa's added time goal created plenty of doubt, but Newcastle would be denied their moment and a fully deserved final win. Just look at what it means to them.

Eddie Howe was the mastermind behind the win, and he was shown some love by Joelinton, who hilariously ended up just drenching himself in water.
What a performance the Brazilian midfielder put in at Wembley.

Not only did Howe end Newcastle's long trophy drought, he also won his first major trophy as a manager, ending another lengthy wait in the process.
