Jamie Redknapp says Newcastle players must quickly regroup around Kieran Trippier after his Chelsea nightmare

Jamie Redknapp says the Newcastle players must quickly regroup around Kieran Trippier after his nightmare at Stanford Bridge.

The Magpies were two minutes from a first-ever away victory in a League Cup quarter-final when Mykhailo Mudryk pounced on a mistake by Trippier, whose header teed up the Ukrainian to score from just a few yards from goal and send the game to spot-kicks.

Trippier’s head was duly scrambled and it was no surprise when he missed in the penalty shootout.

Chelsea were buoyed by their escape and scored all four spot-kicks before Djordje Petrovic saved Matt Ritchie’s effort.
