Ant and Dec can’t stop celebrating as they leave the Wembley Stadium after Newcastle win the Carabao Cup

DIEHARD Newcastle United fans Ant and Dec couldn’t stop smiling as they left Wembley Stadium last night after their club’s Carabao Cup win.

The Magpies beat Liverpool 2-1 in a memorable final that brought Newcastle their first silverware for 70 years.

Ant and Dec were seen cheering wildly inside the ground at the final whistle and they looked over-the-moon as they left the home of English football.

Grinning Dec pumped his fist and clutched a matchday programme as he walked to a waiting car, while Ant, in a Newcastle cap and scarf, raised his arms triumphantly in the air.

There were hugs and cheers before the TV double act were driven away on a night to remember.

The pair kept their fans up to date with their cup final shenanigans.

In a video posted to their shared TikTok account, the presenters shouted: “We did it!”

After briefly pausing, they threw their heads back and resumed their jubilant screaming, shouting “Ahhhhh!” before bursting into laughter.

Ant joked “I’ve lost my voice” while Dec said “I cannot believe it!”

Ant then added “This is amazing” while Dec said: “This is the best day of my life, apart from the wedding and the kids and all that.

“But it’s the best day of my life!”

Earlier snaps showed the duo jumping for joy after a header by Dan Burn took Newcastle to a 1-0 lead just moments before half-time.

Ant leapt high into the air, while waving his scarf, as Dec thrust his arm around a fellow fan in the crowd of frenzied supporters.

Shortly after half-time, top goal scorer Alexander Isak thumped in a second goal to double his side’s lead – as ex-team member Shearer’s hat went flying.

In clips shown on TV, he could be seen retrieving the black baker boy cap after the celebrations had subsided.

Before kick-off, the Toon Army took over Covent Garden in preparation for the long-anticipated clash.

Meanwhile, Wembley was met with a wall of noise and a display of 32,000 black-and-white scarves.

Newcastle had lost five Wembley finals since Jackie Milburn & Co triumphed in 1955, so this was a long overdue trophy for their passionate supporters.

Manager Eddie Howe had been presented with various challenges prior to the game – including an injured Lewis Hall and banned Anthony Gordon.

But, despite Liverpool‘s Federico Chiesa clawing back a goal in injury time, the side romped home to its first domestic victory in 70 years.

This makes Howe the first English manager to win a major English trophy in 17 years – after Harry Redknapp’s Portsmouth won the FA Cup in 2008.

Burn’s scoring header comes just two days after he earned his first England call-up at the age of 32.

The 6ft 7 former Asda worker, who is renowned as one of the nicest men in football, was drafted in by new England chief Thomas Tuchel for the Wembley World Cup qualifiers against Albania and Latvia.
