Watch the highlights as Newcastle United defeated Liverpool 2-1 in the Carabao Cup Final, securing their first major domestic trophy since 1955.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dan Burn and Alexander Isak were the heroes for the Magpies with a goal each either side of half-time.<\/p>\n

Liverpool, flying high in the Premier League, came into the final as favourites, but Newcastle\u2019s disciplined performance saw them lift the silverware at Wembley.<\/p>\n

With both teams missing key players \u2013 Trent Alexander-Arnold<\/a> absent for Liverpool and Anthony Gordon suspended for Newcastle \u2013 the stage was set for a tightly contested clash.<\/p>\n

The game began at a slow pace, with both sides cautiously feeling each other out. Sandro Tonali had the first real attempt, sending a shot just wide of Caoimhin Kelleher\u2019s post.<\/p>\n

Newcastle, however, grew into the game, and as the first half wore on, their confidence increased.<\/p>\n

The breakthrough came at the perfect time for Eddie Howe\u2019s side. Just before the break, Dan Burn found space in the box and rose highest to meet Kieran Trippier\u2019s corner, heading past Kelleher to give Newcastle a 1-0 lead heading into half-time.<\/p>\n

Newcastle thought they had doubled their advantage early in the second half when Isak tapped in a rebound, but Bruno Guimar\u00e3es was adjudged to be offside and interfering with play.<\/p>\n

However, Newcastle didn\u2019t dwell on their misfortune. Just two minutes later, Isak capitalised on another chance \u2013 this time making no mistake as he slotted home to give his side a commanding 2-0 lead.<\/p>\n

Liverpool struggled to break through Newcastle\u2019s resilient defence, and although Federico Chiesa pulled one back in stoppage time, it was too little, too late for Arne Slot\u2019s side.<\/p>\n
