Eddie Howe refused to get carried away even as Newcastle moved one step closer to reaching the Carabao Cup final.

He said: “It was a tough game, both teams had their moments. I’m happy to win the game, but we know it’s only halftime.

“We created chances today, we weren’t clinical until Jo’s goal but it happens, I can’t be critical.

“Nick made a few saves at the end but there’s still a lot to do in the tie.”
