NEWCASTLE UNITED have missed out on a place in Europe after Manchester United’s victory in today’s FA Cup final condemned the Magpies to a season without continental competition.
Manchester United pulled off a cup final shock as they beat Manchester City 2-1 at Wembley thanks to goals from Alejandro Garnacho and Kobbie Mainoo.
As a result of their victory, Newcastle’s seventh-place finish in the final Premier League table is not good enough to secure a place in Europe next term.
Manchester City, Arsenal, Liverpool and Aston Villa will compete in the Champions League, with Manchester United and Tottenham lining up in the Europa League.
Chelsea will take a place in the final play-off round of the Conference League, meaning Newcastle will not be involved in European action next term.
