Hello there! The first men's international break of the year is officially underway so it's time to gear up for a big week for the U.S. men's national team, but not before a look back as the first trophy of the season was handed out in England.

It is slowly starting to sink in that Newcastle United did indeed end their trophy drought at Wembley Stadium on Sunday, with the 2-1 weekend win over Liverpool being replayed countless times by those of a black and white persuasion in recent days.

Newcastle United secured their first domestic trophy for 70 years - and ended a wait for a major prize stretching back to 1969 - with a deserved Carabao Cup final win over Liverpool at Wembley.
