Carabao Cup final: Man Utd’s prize money for defeating Newcastle revealedCarabao Cup final: Man Utd’s prize money for defeating Newcastle revealed

Manchester United earned just £100,000 in prize money after defeating Newcastle United 2-0 in the Carabao Cup final on Sunday.

Casemiro and Marcus Rashford both scored in the first half, as the Red Devils won their first trophy under Erik ten Hag.

It is also United’s first piece of silverware since 2017.

Newcastle received only £50,000 for their efforts.

But the clubs will at least have split the gate receipts at Wembley, where 87,306 fans had been in attendance.

Nottingham Forest and Southampton, who lost in the semi-finals, made £25,000 each.

Every other participant, including the four beaten quarter-finalists, failed to make a penny in prize money.
