00:00Newcastle United head coach Eddie Howe has made clear that the late win against Fulham at St James' Park in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon

00:08can have a knock-on effect in terms of momentum going forward for the Magpies in their future games.

00:16Newcastle won 2-1 against the London side at St James' Park thanks to a late winner from Bruno Gimaraes.

00:22And the Magpies next take on Tottenham Hotspur in the Carabao Cup at St James' Park.

00:27Yeah, I think it is. We've seen many times, I think, historically, when you score late goals, it's not just the game that you've won that is affected.

00:38It's, hopefully for us, the mood, even the attitude when you're in that position.

00:45Again, there's more belief that you can find a winner, that you've got players that can decide games.

00:50So I think it has a big knock-on effect, just like we've had to battle the other way because we conceded late at times this year

00:54and you have to battle that becoming a habit. And to break that today, I think, was really important.

01:00My eyes would now go straight away to reviewing this game and then looking at Tottenham and there's no rest for us.

01:06But I've said so many times this season, I'm enjoying the games and the players are the same.

01:11So looking forward to that one.

01:12And Middlesbrough head coach Rob Edwards has taken accountability for his side only being able to manage a draw against Wrexham in the Championship at the Riverside Stadium at the weekend.
