Eddie Howe held out the tears while talking about the emotion she felt after finishing the Newcastle 70 years waiting for a domestic trophy in the Caabao Cup final.
The Uracas were magnificent during a 2-1 victory over Liverpool in which Geordie Dan Burn's defender and star striker Alexander Isak were in the target.
It is the first time since the 1955 FA Cup final that Newcastle has raised a trophy in Wembley and, full -time, it was Howe's name that the Toon army sent reverberating around the ground.
He once walked through Wembley's old steps with his mother, Anne, during a stadium tour when he was a child. She died after a brief disease in 2012.
And Newcastle's boss was clearly emotional when he reflected.
“Naturally, you end up thinking about the players, the staff, but also the people who are not with you,” he said. As for me, my mother and my family. You simply think of all hard sacrifices, the hard work they gave you when I was a child, to give you the opportunity to have a good life.

'You think you get help from above and get support, and I have always had the idea that I want to try to pride my family. Now, of course, I have three children, and I want to try to make them proud too.
From his players, Howe said: 'Everyone has had different trips to get to this point, but we have joined as a team. I love working with them every day. I feel honored to be its leader.
'And for the followers, who arrived in thousands today, who supported us at home. Since I have been in the football club, the support we have had Home and Away has been incredible. So I'm so happy to have this trophy to finish the long wait. And I hope we can get more in the future.
