Newcastle United beat Liverpool in the final of the EFL Cup to win their first major domestic trophy since 1955.
Newcastle United ended their 70-year wait for a domestic trophy by beating Liverpool 2-1 in the EFL Cup final at Wembley Stadium on Sunday.
Dan Burn, fresh from his England call-up, opened the scoring with a towering header in the first half, before Alexander Isak had the decisive say on his 100th Newcastle appearance.
Federico Chiesa gave the Reds some late hope as Newcastle's defence was finally split open in second-half stoppage time, but his low drive proved nothing more than a consolation for Arne Slot's side.
Newcastle's triumph is their first in a major cup competition since they won the FA Cup in 1955.
