FA Cup classic
For all the plaudits levelled at Jurgen Klopp during his time at Anfield, the FA Cup is a competition he has always endured a tough relationship with.
The 2022 triumph aside, this was only Liverpool’s second FA Cup quarter final in a decade under Jurgen Klopp and playing Manchester United at Old Trafford is always a tough ask.
United took the lead through Scott McTOminay, with Alexis MacAllister and Mohamed Salah hitting back for Liverpool. Anthony forced extra time for United, with Harvey Elliott and Marcus Rashford exchanging strikes before substitute Amad Diallo won it for the Red Devils.
Bouncebackability
Winning multiple trophies simply isn’t for everyone and Liverpool will need to show serious resilience if they are to fight on in both the Premier League and the Europa League.

FA Cup up for grabs
With the seemingly insurmountable Liverpool now dispatched, the other 4 sides in the competition will be breathing a sigh of relief.
Holders Manchester City take on Chelsea in the semi-finals, whilst Manchester United’s reward is a Wembley meeting with Championship side Coventry City.
