00:00Sunderland were dumped out of the Carabao Cup at the second round stage against
00:04League One Huddersfield at home 6-5 on penalties following a 1-1 draw in
00:09normal time. Yeah I'm a bit disappointed because we wanted to win and to be fair
00:15I think Huddersfield played with passion and they scored a fantastic goal
00:21during the first half. We were not at our best during this first half and we
00:26struggled to find the right tempo and the right position to play I think but the
00:31second half was much better and not enough to win the game but at the end
00:36yeah we got minutes for many players and it's positive for the future.
00:41A good moment from Marc Guillou tonight, plenty of hard work from him, plenty of
00:45willingness which eventually paired off with a well-taken goal as well.
00:49Yeah it's still important for a striker to score for the confidence and the
00:54references you have to find with your teammates so yeah a good step for him.
00:58Above the result, plenty of things for you to look over tonight and plenty of
01:04scope for thought heading into Brentford this weekend. Yeah absolutely and we we
01:09know our objective is really clear for this season. And Newcastle United head
01:14coach Eddie Howe has made clear that he would like clarity over Alexander
01:18Isak's future at the club. The Swedish striker is still refusing to play for the
01:23Magpies as he looks to push through a move to Liverpool before the end of the
01:28transfer window on the 1st of September. However with only a few short days left
01:33until the window slams shut, Isak's move is looking unlikely at this stage
01:38unless Newcastle can find replacements. Yeah I mean I think that's the ideal from
01:42everyone. Our side, Newcastle side is we want clarity, we want to move forward, we
01:47want the sort of narrative to change because we're in the start of the season now. We're
01:54into the action and we've got to get results and we've got to try and focus on
01:58what we can control. We've given two really really good performances, we've
02:02ended up with one point. That's tough for us to take and especially in this
02:05this moment where you're looking for positive to cling to. But we battled
02:11through and we now go on to Leeds.
