Manchester United clinched their first trophy in almost six years on Sunday after defeating Newcastle United 2-0 in the League Cup final at Wembley.
Casemiro opened the scoring when he headed home Luke Shaw's perfect set-piece cross in the 33rd minute and Sven Botman's own goal, deflecting a Marcus Rashford strike over goalkeeper Loris Karius, six minutes later proved the difference.
In lifting the League Cup, United have claimed their first piece of silverware since winning the Europa League in 2017 and provided tangible proof of the progress being made under manager Erik ten Hag since his appointment last summer.The celebrations that accompanied United's sixth League Cup triumph could be the first of many trophy parades on the evidence of Ten Hag's transformative first season.
United remain challengers on three other fronts, sitting third in the Premier League and with an FA Cup fifth round tie against West Ham on Wednesday followed by a Europa League last 16 tie against Real Betis in March.
