Newcastle United boss Eddie Howe is confident that Sven Botman will be better for a recent error he made in the Premier League.

The center back has been enjoying an outstanding season in the heart of the Magpies' defense.

However, he was at fault for a Nottingham Forest goal, which put Newcastle 1-0 down in the game.

They did roar back to win the contest 2-1, with Howe stating the following on Botman to Chronicle Live: "He's been incredibly consistent for us this season, he's been a rock at the heart of our defense.

"We all make mistakes, I thought he responded very well in a difficult moment.

“It'll be good for his learning to have gone through that."
