The "Newcastle United" club lost to "Manchester City" with an aggregate score of 1:5 in the "Carabao" Cup semifinals.

The head coach of "The Magpies," Eddie Howe, did not hide his disappointment over the 1:3 loss:

"I was very unhappy with the performance in the first half, as we weren't good enough individually.

We also looked poor in duels, and that caused significant problems. I think the defense was poor."

"We have quite a few injured players in several positions, and Anthony Gordon suffered a thigh injury.

I don't know how long the Englishman will be unable to play."

"Newcastle United" has been performing inconsistently this season.

"The Magpies" share 11th-12th place in the English Championship with 33 points.
