Newcastle United have won a trophy at Wembley Stadium for the first time since 1955, and their first major trophy since 1969 after Eddie Howe led the Magpies to a 2-1 win over Liverpool on Sunday in the League Cup Final.

Howe led Newcastle to the final two seasons ago when they lost to Manchester United, but the Magpies were not denied in his second chance at silverware.

Newcastle is guaranteed at least a Conference League slot with this win, though Howe's men can still qualify for the Champions League or Europa League through the Premier League table.

That's all an afterthought at the moment as Newcastle have beaten Liverpool for the first time in 18 tries, a fitting end to an even longer wait for silverware.
