Eddie Howe pleased with the result
Eddie Howe refused to get carried away despite Newcastle moving a step closer to reaching the Carabao Cup final.
He said: “It was a tough game, both teams had their moments. I’m pleased to win the game, but we know it’s only half-time.
“We created chances today, we weren’t clinical until Jo’s goal, but it happens, I can’t be critical. Nick made some saves at the end, but there’s still a lot to play in the tie.”
