Eddie Howe hailed Newcastle's "incredible" League Cup final victory against Liverpool as proof his side are ready for a period of sustained success after finally ending their 56-year trophy drought.

Newcastle produced a superb display to beat Premier League leaders Liverpool 2-1 at Wembley on Sunday, securing the Magpies' first major prize since the 1969 Inter-Cities Fairs Cup.
After celebrating with 32,000 jubilant Newcastle fans packed into one half of Wembley, Howe and his players kept the party going in the dressing room.
The euphoric celebrations included dousing Howe with champagne and beer as the magnitude of delivering Newcastle's first significant domestic prize since the 1955 FA Cup started to sink in.
