Newcastle United Under-21s will face an away trip to Heaton Stannington in the semi-finals of the Newcastle Flooring Northumberland Senior Cup.

The young Magpies booked their spot in the last four after a 5-1 victory against Alnwick Town in November, courtesy of Mo Sedibeh's brace and strikes from Alfie Harrison, Josh Donaldson and Johnny Emerson.

Newcastle's second-string have been handed an away tie against The Stan, which will take place at Grounsell Park, after the Northern Premier League Division One East outfit claimed a 3-1 away win against Blyth Town in the quarter-final stages.

The winner of the tie will face either Morpeth Town or Ashington in the final, which will be held at St. James' Park.

Diarmuid O'Carroll's side will be bidding to lift the trophy for a record-extending 41st time after Newcastle's youngsters won the competition last season following a 3-1 win against Blyth Town in the final.

A date and kick-off time will be confirmed on newcastleunited.com in due course.
