Newcastle United have taken a huge step forward to play in the League Cup final. Newcastle United defeated Arsenal 2-0 in the first leg of the semi-final played on Tuesday. Alexander Isaac and Anthony Gordon scored the goals for Newcastle United.

With this defeat, Arsenal will face a big challenge in the return leg on 5 February. The winner of this semi-final match will face either Tottenham Hotspur or Liverpool Poole for the title.
