Newcastle beat Liverpool to win 2025 Carabao Cup final

Date:

Newcastle have ended a 70-year wait for silverware by beating Liverpool 2-1 to win the Carabao Cup final.

The Magpies last won a major trophy in 1955, lifting the FA Cup. However, they went on to lose their next five final appearances—three FA Cup finals and two League Cup finals.

Their most recent final defeat came in 2023, when they lost 2-0 to Manchester United in the Carabao Cup final.

Boyhood Newcastle fan Dan Burn put his team ahead with a towering header just before half-time.

Alexander Isak doubled their advantage with a sharp finish inside the box shortly after the restart.

Federico Chiesa’s 96th-minute goal set up a tense finale, but it was merely a consolation in the end.

Liverpool were knocked out of the Champions League earlier this week but remain 12 points clear of Arsenal in the Premier League.
