Sam Fender celebrates Newcastle United's cup win during Berlin concert

Sam Fender has celebrated Newcastle United's Carabao Cup victory during his live show in Berlin, incorporating several tributes to the club throughout his performance.

The singer took to the stage shortly after Newcastle secured their first domestic trophy in 70 years, beating Liverpool 2-1. During the performance, which follows the release of his album 'People Watching', Fender made several changes to his usual setlist to mark the occasion.

Opening the show, Fender walked out to NUFC's anthem – Mark Knopfler's 'Going Home: Theme of the Local Hero'. Later in the set, he modified lyrics in his track 'Little Bit Closer', changing "I never found him" to "his name is Dan Burn", referencing the Newcastle player who scored in the 45th minute of the final.

"Already got emotional today. Shed some tears. HWTL," Fender shared before the match, later adding: "Best day ever. We deserved it. 70 years. The clock has been reset. Howay the lads."
