Newcastle boss Eddie Howe says reaching a semi-final is "not enough" as his side prepare to face Southampton for a place in the Carabao Cup final.
The Magpies have not won a major domestic trophy since 1955 but Howe says his side are "desperate for the next step".
Newcastle travel to St Mary's for the first leg on Tuesday.
"We're delighted to be where we are but the semi-final itself isn't enough," Howe said at Monday's news conference.
"Ultimately, you want to get one step further. I know the players feel the same way.
"Me and my coaching team feel passionately about it that we want to make the final, but we have to navigate these two games and they're going to be very difficult.
