For the Saints, who are currently bottom of the Premier League, Sekou Mara opened the scoring before Moussa Djenepo added a second with a brilliantly looped effort.
The Premier League champions defeated trophy holders Liverpool on their way to the quarter-finals, but their focus will now shift to the Champions League, the FA Cup, and retaining their title.
Man United defeated Charlton Athletic 3-0 at Old Trafford on Tuesday, with Marcus Rashford scoring twice.
Ten Hag is confident that the England international will continue to score for the Red Devils.
“I have told you many times that when he brings himself into position, when the teams put him in positions, in one-on-ones in the box, he will score, and that is what he is doing right now,” Ten Hag said after the Addicks win.
“So if he keeps the focus and keeps putting the effort in he will keep on scoring.
“What you see now with Rashy is quite obvious; it wasn’t at the beginning of the season, but he is now in the right moment.”
Newcastle, meanwhile, has reached their first FA Cup semi-final in 18 years after defeating Leicester City in the quarter-finals on Tuesday.
The Magpies are hoping to cap off a fantastic season with some silverware.

“It’s been too long, too long,” Howe said after the 2-0 win over the Foxes. “That’s no criticism of anyone that’s tried, but we’re desperate to hurry up the processes and try to get the team successful as quickly as possible.
“That’s easier said than done, and we now go to a semi-final. It’s one thing to make it to the semi-finals, but you want to make it to the final and experience it. We know whoever we get will put us to the test, but we’re just happy to be there.”
Finally, after a 1-1 draw at the City Ground, Nottingham Forest defeated Wolves in a penalty shootout in their quarter-final.
The Carabao Cup semi-finals are split into two legs, with Forest hosting Manchester United in the first match before traveling to Old Trafford.
