Manchester United vs Newcastle LIVE: Carabao Cup final result and reaction as Erik ten Hag wins first trophy

42 mins: Can Newcastle respond before half-time? Nearly!

Kieran Trippier plays a corner short to Miguel Almiron who returns the ball. Trippier’s cross is chipped over to Dan Burn who wins the header ahead of Luke Shaw but guides it wide of the back post.

39 mins: Marcus Rashford doubles Manchester United’s lead!

A long ball up the pitch is headed over to Casemiro who passes the ball up to Wout Weghorst. Weghorst does the hard yards and carries the ball up to the penalty area before slipping in Marcus Rashford.

He opens up his body and looks for the far corner with his shot. Sven Botman dives back to make the block and the ball loops off his leg and flies over Loris Karius to add to United’s lead.

Pressure on Newcastle now.

36 mins: Manchester United draw first blood but can Newcastle respond? They’ve shown enough over this first half to prove they’re a threat to United but they need to be more clinical in front of goal.

33 mins: Marcus Rashford is brought down on the left wing. The resultant free kick is swung into the box by Luke Shaw who places the ball perfectly onto the head of Casemiro who nods it into the far corner!

Brilliant set piece from Manchester United who take the lead at Wembley.

32 mins: Close! Miguel Almiron drives forward and slots the ball out to Kieran Trippier on the right wing. He slips the ball into the box for Sean Longstaff who drills a square ball across the six-yard area.

None of his teammates can meet the pass but it’s picked up by Allan Saint-Maximin. He checks to the left and drills a shot at goal only to be denied by the left-hand of David De Gea!

Solid save from Man Utd’s goalkeeper.

30 mins: Martinez and Schar are back on their feet and ready to go, Schar has had a bandage placed near his left eye and still seems a little dazed.

The noise inside Wembley is fantastic, non stop singing, cheering and jeering from both sets of fans. Great atmosphere for this final.

27 mins: Fabian Schar starts a Newcastle attacking with a driving run forward. He sends the ball over to Kieran Trippier on the right wing before carrying on his run.

Trippier whips in a cross but Schar can’t control his header under pressure from Lisandro Martinez and nods it high and wide. Both players stay down after their collision and need what look like concussion tests from the medics.

24 mins: Bruno Guimaraes seems to have picked up a knock now too and needs a bit of treatment from the Newcastle physios. It’ll be a huge blow if he has to come off the pitch, with Joelinton he’s been Newcastle best player so far.

21 mins: Antony is hobbling around for Man Utd holding his left groin. It’s not a massive issue at present but it’s a niggle Erik ten Hag will need to be aware of.

United knock the ball nicely around the back to draw Newcastle up the pitch. Lisandro Martinez then slides a pass down the left wing to Fred who is fouled close to the halfway line.

18 mins: Marcus Rashford gets on the end of a straight long ball but solid defending from the Newcastle centre-back forces him over to the right and stops him from shooting.

He gives the ball to Antony who cuts onto his left-foot and challenges Loris Karius with a shot from range that sails straight into the waiting arms of the goalkeeper.
