Armstrong frustrated by early Newcastle Cup exit

Newcastle United striker Adam Armstrong was left frustrated by their FA Cup defeat to Leicester City.

The 17-year-old played the full game at the King Power Stadium and, while the defeat at the hands of the Foxes was disappointing, he was trying to remain upbeat.

He said after the 1-0 defeat: "It's great as a young lad to get my chance. I've taken it and looking to get more games.

"I just want to keep getting better. You have to push for your place as a young lad. We need to keep going, keep pushing and put it right next game.

"We need to keep working hard.

"We need to get wins and work hard in training, that's all we can do."
