James Corden trends after shirtless Newcastle United supporter goes viral at Carabao Cup final

Actor and talkshow host James Corden has drawn comparisons to a Newcastle United fan who appeared on Sky Sports' coverage of the Carabao Cup final.

Corden, who is most known for his role as Smithy in the sitcom Gavin and Stacey and hosting The Late Late Show in the United States, began to trend as a search on social media after the Magpies fan was spotted by viewers.

Fans took to Twitter and shared photos of the shirtless fan, who has NUFC tattooed across his chest, with many of them helping it go viral on the platform. Unfortunately the fan had little to smile about at Wembley after watching his side concede two first-half goals to Manchester United.
