Newcastle United’s women’s team led by manager Becky Langley has reached the National League Cup final after defeating Portsmouth 2-1 at St James’s Park. With a potential trophy on the horizon, Langley’s squad aims to end the club’s silverware drought offering a different narrative from Eddie Howe’s men.
Langley celebrating her 100th game in charge expressed pride in the team’s journey and thanked the fans for their support. Despite potential challenges such as the departure of sporting director Dan Ashworth to Manchester United, Langley remains focused on achieving promotion to the Women’s Super League (WSL).
The majority Saudi Arabian owners have emphasized the importance of advancing the women’s team sparking discussions on the motives behind this initiative. Langley sees it as a positive step empowering girls and women in Saudi Arabia by providing female role models.
As the team faces Hashtag United in the final, Langley’s vision includes reaching the top-tier WSL and continuing the modernization of women’s football within the club and beyond.
