Ally McCoist has revealed he was ‘thrilled’ for one Magpies player during Newcastle United’s 2-0 win over Leicester City on Tuesday night - but it wasn’t Dan Burn.

Here, we round-up all the latest stories that have emerged from St James’s Park and beyond:

What stunned Newcastle United head coach Eddie Howe against Leicester City

Ally McCoist on Joelinton

Dan Burn dominated the headlines following Newcastle United’s win over Leicester City as the boyhood Newcastle fan grabbed his first goal for the club. Burn’s strike on the hour gave the Magpies a deserved lead before Joelinton sealed their progression to the semi-final twelve minutes later.

It was the Brazilian’s third goal of the season as he continues his remarkable transformation on Tyneside. Joelinton has impressed many over the past 12 months or so, none more so than former Rangers man Ally McCoist who revealed his delight at seeing the 26-year-old get on the scoresheet against Leicester.

McCoist told TalkSport: “I think the one standout I’ve got to say, I can’t remember being happier for a player that I’ve never met than Joelinton.

“I’m not kidding you on, he actually looks like a different human being. It’s brilliant to see, I’ve never met the guy, but I’m thrilled for him.”
