And Newcastle can finally end their torrid run of failing to achieve major success when they take it on Manchester United at Wembley.
But how long has it been since the old famous club lifted a trophy?
When was the last time Newcastle United won a trophy?
Newcastle technically won their last trophy during the Championship season 2016/17 under Spanish icon Rafael Benitez.
And going back further, the Magpies achieved Intertoto Cup success in 2006 and the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup in 1968/69.
However, none of the foregoing are considered major titles, meaning Newcastle’s last official win was an FA Cup win in the 1954/55 season.
The English giants defeated Manchester City 3-1 at Wembley to lift the iconic trophy for the sixth time.
