Luke Shaw believes the Carabao Cup final represents a 'massive opportunity' for Manchester United but accepts Newcastle United will provide a 'tough game'. The Red Devils eased past Nottingham Forest at Old Trafford on Wednesday night to seal a 5-0 aggregate victory and book their place at Wembley later this month.
Newcastle dispatched Southampton the night before, and will now face their top-four rivals as they bid to end the club's painful trophy drought. Shaw believes the upcoming final is a 'big moment' in the Red Devils' development under Erik ten Hag, and could not hide his excitement at the tie following the 2-0 home win over Forest.
He told Sky Sports: "Of course it’s extremely pleasing, but I don’t think there’s any point going to a final if we don’t win it so it’s a massive opportunity for us. It’s where we want to be, playing in big games, big finals, and getting this club back to where it should be.
