Newcastle United v Leicester City: Magpies must be more clinical after FA Cup shock, says Eddie Howe

Newcastle boss Eddie Howe has called upon his side to be more clinical as they look to respond to their shock FA Cup exit when they face Leicester City in the quarter-finals of the Carabao Cup on Tuesday.

Newcastle had 22 shots on goal in that game and Howe says they must take their chances if they want to avoid exiting another cup.

"We have to be more clinical," he said.

"If we look back at the Leeds game and Saturday, there were too many chances not taken."

He added: "Psychologically, it would be a great thing for us to get through to a two-legged semi-final.
