Newcastle striker Callum Wilson was happy to score in victory over Nottingham Forest.

But Wilson says Newcastle won't get "carried away" by their winning start to the Premier League season.

He said, "First game of the season, we weren't clinical enough and they played with a back five so it was congested in there and we needed to be a bit more intricate."

In a big year for Wilson, he was also asked about the World Cup finals in Qatar.

He said: "I back myself, I want to go the World Cup so it's about hitting the ground running. I'm disappointed I didn't score more.

"I'm confident in all the players and staff here, we had a good end to the season last year and started well today but we don't want to get carried away."
