In the past few years Newcastle United has shown some tremendous progress in both Domestic and European Competition. Even in the present season they are positioned six in the league and are also the finalists of the Carabao Cup wherein they will be facing Defending Champions Liverpool. However, their path to final was not an easy one. Afterall they were facing Heavyweights Arsenal in the Semi-finals. However, they did surprise everyone when they defeated Arsenal 2-0 in the first leg. It was literally unexpected that they will register a win in Emirates. But, defying all odds they came out victorious in the first leg.
Hence, there was a belief that Newcastle could make into the finals. However, no one wrote Arsenal off completely because they are a top team with top players and a top manager. So everyone expected a tough fight in the second leg. And Boy they did try hard to make their way out. Newcastle, however, ultimately prevailed as they defeated Arsenal 2-0 at St. James' Park to earn a 4-0 aggregate victory and a spot in the Carabao Cup final. Next month, the Magpies, who haven't taken home a major trophy since 1955, will take against Liverpool at Wembley.
Newcastle have now made it back to the League Cup final for the second time in three seasons thanks to their overwhelming performance over the two legs against a dominant Arsenal side. They will now be looking to improve on their 2023 loss to Manchester United and end their trophy drought.
