Ant and Dec, two of the UK’s most beloved television presenters, were left absolutely 

ecstatic after witnessing their home team, Newcastle United Football Club, clinch a monumental victory in the Carabao Cup final. The presenting duo, who proudly hail from Newcastle and are passionate Geordie fans, made their way to London’s Wembley Arena 

on Sunday to watch their team face off against Liverpool Football Club. The atmosphere was 

electric as the two teams battled for the prestigious cup, and Ant and Dec couldn’t contain their excitement as they watched their team triumph with a commanding 2-0 victory over their rivals from Liverpool.

The win was a moment of sheer joy for the duo, who have always been vocal about their love and support for their hometown team. Ant McPartlin, 49, could barely contain his excitement after the final whistle, admitting that he had overdone it with the shouting and celebrating. “I’ve lost my voice,” Ant confessed, clearly feeling the effects of his enthusiastic support for his team. His voice was hoarse from screaming, cheering, and fully immersing himself in the euphoria of the moment. Dec, also 49, expressed similar exuberance, admitting that the victory was so meaningful to him that he was willing to risk disappointing his wife and two children. “Watching Newcastle win was the greatest day of my life,” Dec declared, though he quickly added that it was only second to his wedding day and the birth of his children.

The joy was palpable, and the two Geordies couldn’t wait to share their excitement with their fans on social media. In a video posted after the match, Ant and Dec appeared in high spirits as they stood among other jubilant Newcastle supporters in the stands. Dec, holding his phone and recording the moment, screamed into the camera, “Well? We did it!” Ant, still catching his breath from all the excitement, wheezed into the camera and added, “Toot toot. I’ve lost my voice. Oh my god, this is amazing.” Dec, overwhelmed by the victory, shouted again, “I can’t believe it. This is the best day of my life. Apart from my wedding, and the kids. But it’s the best day of my life.” Their happiness and pure joy were evident in the video, and it quickly became a hit on social media. Fans flooded the comments section with messages of support and excitement, with one follower even writing, “I just saw you guys on my TV on the cameras for the match!!”

However, while Ant and Dec were celebrating their beloved Newcastle’s victory, the match itself wasn’t without its drama. ITV, which was broadcasting the game, found itself in the hot seat after an unexpected moment of bad language made its way to air. Prior to the match, the cameras zoomed in on the Liverpool team’s pep talk, where their captain, Virgil van Dijk, was seen giving an impassioned speech to his teammates. With a camera just inches away from the squad, van Dijk’s voice could be heard urging his team to give their all for the game: “We worked so hard to be here. Let’s f***ing do this together, come on.” The use of the F-word was clearly audible, and it quickly became a topic of conversation among viewers.

ITV, eager to maintain their reputation and avoid further controversy, immediately issued an apology for the bad language that had slipped through during the broadcast. A statement was released to express regret for any offense caused by the expletive, and the network apologized to viewers who may have been upset by the language. However, this apology seemed to stir up more frustration than it alleviated. Fans on social media were quick to criticize ITV for apologizing over what they saw as an entirely natural and passionate moment in a sports setting. One irate fan took to X (formerly Twitter) to express their displeasure, writing, “We live in a time of wet wipes.” Another fan chimed in, saying, “Stop apologizing for bad language when covering sports. You poked a camera into a team talk, what did you expect?” Many other fans shared similar sentiments, expressing frustration that the network had issued an apology at all. One fan even suggested, “If that offends you, switch off the footy and watch Songs of Praise.”

As the game unfolded, viewers couldn’t help but marvel at the performance of the Newcastle team, who seemed to be playing with more energy and determination than their Liverpool counterparts. The match reached its first dramatic moment when Dan Burn scored the opening goal for Newcastle, sending their fans into rapturous celebration. The atmosphere in the stands was electric as Newcastle fans celebrated the first strike. The team’s dominance continued as Alexander Isak, with a clinical finish, added a second goal to seal their victory and put them firmly in control. The second goal sent waves of joy through the crowd, and it was clear that Newcastle had well and truly earned their victory.

The celebrations in the stands were a sight to behold, and Ant and Dec were right at the heart of it all. The Geordie duo’s pride in their team was evident, and their shared joy with the fans around them encapsulated the euphoria of the moment. For Newcastle, the 2-0 win was a historic achievement, and for Ant and Dec, it was a dream come true to see their team lift the Carabao Cup. The victory marked a significant milestone for the club, and the two presenters couldn’t have been happier to witness it.

As the dust settled from the dramatic match, the social media posts and reactions from fans continued to roll in, with Newcastle supporters around the world reveling in the glory of their team’s triumph. For Ant and Dec, the victory was an unforgettable moment, and the joy they shared with their fellow fans will surely be one they will cherish for years to come. Their unfiltered excitement, along with the drama surrounding the match and ITV’s apology, made this Carabao Cup final one to remember for both the fans and the presenters alike.
