Eddie Howe has reflected on Newcastle United’s 2-1 win over Tranmere Rovers. The narrow victory sets up a home tie against Crystal Palace after the pitch side draw at Prenton Park.
Howe’s side had to come back from behind to take the win. He said: “We're really happy to get through. We had to pick a team we felt could get through the tie off the back of a game we felt we had given everything. We had to stand up and be counted.”
Howe singled out Jamaal Lascelles for praise after the skipper scored an equaliser.
