It's only half-time for Newcastle United in their last four Carabao Cup shootout - but Eddie Howe's side have one foot in a Wembley final.
They are a mere clean sheet away from their first appearance in a final in 24 years. But while they are halfway to a first appearance in a final showpiece beneath the famous Wembley arch, Howe knows there is plenty of room for improvement.
For more than an hour, it looked like Newcastle players had fluffed their lines as they wasted chance after chance. Yet this side is bursting with characters and a group of players who are always determined to get it right and after Joelinton's four-yard miss, he went on to redeem himself and leave the field a hero.
