Kieran Trippier says it would "mean everything" to win a cup at Newcastle United.
The right-back was outstanding as the Magpies floored Leicester City in the last eight to grab their place in the two-legged semi-finals.
Speaking after the superb win, Trippier told Sky Sports: "We knew this was important because we went out of the FA Cup, the lads were brilliant tonight.

"The supporters here are brilliant, they follow us in numbers and it's always a great atmosphere at home. We want to make them proud by giving everything on the pitch.
"It would mean everything to win a trophy but we just need to focus on the next game, take it one game at a time and now we look to the Premier League."
And when reflecting on Dan Burn's crucial goal, Trippier added: "I am just delighted for Burny, he's come close a few times but it was great for him to score at St James'."
