Newcastle Wins First Domestic Trophy in 70 Years with Carabao Cup Victory Over Liverpool

Dan Burn and Alexander Isak scored in a historic triumph as Newcastle defeated Liverpool 2-1 at Wembley, ending a decades-long trophy drought.

Newcastle United secured their first domestic silverware since 1955, defeating Liverpool 2-1 in the Carabao Cup final at Wembley Stadium.
Dan Burn, a local hero, opened the scoring with a towering header just before halftime, while Alexander Isak added a second with a clinical half-volley in the second half.
Despite a late goal from Federico Chiesa for Liverpool, Newcastle's resolute defense and dominant performance ensured their victory.
Eddie Howe's tactical approach and the standout performances of players like Joelinton and Burn highlighted Newcastle's transformation under his management since 2021.
Liverpool, leading the Premier League and coming off a Champions League exit earlier in the week, struggled to match Newcastle's intensity, suffering one of their poorest performances of the season.
