Carling Cup hero David Ngog has received praise by boss Rafa Benitez following his performance against Leeds.
“He is a young player, but he has quality,” said Benitez.
“That is something we knew. He showed character.
“He was trying to keep the ball and get into positions. He was really tired at the end but he did a fantastic job.
“He knows the Premier League is very difficult but here he showed he can do it.
“Cup competitions are always very difficult. You have to win, everyone is working so hard.
“He is still a young player, he has quality.”
