The Magpies responded with a dominant 2-0 win, sealing a 4-0 aggregate victory and booking their place in the Carabao Cup final at Wembley.

Post-game, first-team coach Tindall said: "Obviously there was a lot of expectation on us coming into the game after the result we got at the Emirates. “It was about us being 'ourselves' tonight and sticking to the plan and executing it. The lads executed it excellently. That was always there for all to see.

"Whoever we come against now, Tottenham or Liverpool, are top teams. We have got to go to Wembley and learn from the experiences we had before. “We have to go there and deliver the level of performance we have delivered in these semi-finals. Hopefully, we will go there and go one better than last time."
