Man United beat Newcastle to win Carabao Cup, end six-year trophy drought

Manchester United ended their six-year wait for silverware as they beat Newcastle United 2-0 to win the Carabao Cup at Wembley Stadium on Sunday.

United last won a major trophy in their 2017 Europa League campaign, but looked comfortable in their display against Eddie Howe's side as Casemiro's header and a Sven Botman own goal gave Newcastle too much to overcome in their first League Cup final appearance since 1976.

There was little in the way of clear-cut chances in a frantic beginning, but United opened the scoring on 33 minutes in the first of two quickfire goals as stalwart midfielder Casemiro sent one half of Wembley into pandemonium.
