Manchester United Wins 4-1 Over Newcastle
Newcastle, February 26th - In a thrilling Carabao Cup final, Cristiano Ronaldo etched his name in history with a remarkable double, powering Manchester United to a resounding 4-1 victory over Newcastle at the iconic St. James' Park.
The Portuguese superstar opened the scoring in the 39th minute, capitalizing on a mistake by Newcastle's defense. The Red Devils then took a further lead when Marcus Rashford slotted home a composed finish just seven minutes later. The Magpies fought back after the break, with Allan Saint-Maximin pulling a goal back in the 73rd minute.
However, Ronaldo extinguished Newcastle's hopes of a comeback, scoring his second goal of the night just three minutes later. Casemiro then sealed the triumph with a 90th-minute strike, completing a dominant performance from the Red Devils.
Ronaldo's double marked a significant milestone for the 38-year-old, as he became the all-time top scorer in UEFA club competitions with 141 goals. The win also marked Manchester United's first major trophy since 2017 and their sixth League Cup triumph overall.
