Ant McPartlin<\/a> and Declan Donnelly<\/a> have been spotted weeping in the crowd as Newcastle<\/a> beat Liverpool to a win with a score of 1-2 in the English League Cup<\/a> Final tonight.<\/p>\n

Proudly sporting their Newcastle scarves, the Saturday Night Takeaway<\/a> hosts watched from the crowds as the match played out in Wembley<\/a>.<\/p>\n

And, as the Magpies’ Dan Burn scored the team’s first goal of the match only moments before halftime, the pair erupted with joy.<\/p>\n

This was soon followed by a second goal from Alexander Isak, who doubled the team’s lead\u2014and brought on more celebrations from the I’m A Celebrity presenting duo.<\/p>\n

Federico Chiesa managed to score a late strike during the second half for Liverpool<\/a>, but as the whistle blew, history was made and tears were shed as Newcastle celebrated the end of a decades-long trophy drought<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Marking the team’s first major trophy since 1969, it’s no wonder notable Geordies Ant and Dec<\/a> were in tears as their beloved team lifted the Carabao Cup.<\/p>\n
