Liverpool dump Arsenal out of FA Cup

Liverpool dumped Arsenal out of the FA Cup on Sunday, triumphing over the Gunners 2-0 at the Emirates Stadium.

Liverpool got two late goals to move to the fourth round of the FA Cup.

Arsenal paid the price for missing a host of opportunities and were punished as Liverpool grew increasingly dangerous as the match progressed.

The deadlock was broken when Trent Alexander-Arnold’s free-kick glanced in off Jakub Kiwior’s head with seven minutes left.

Luis Diaz added Liverpool’s second goal on added time to ensure that there will not be any comeback from Arsenal.

According to the BBC, Mikel Arteta’s side dominated the first half, with Martin Odegaard hitting the bar while Reiss Nelson and Kai Havertz also had chances to give Arsenal reward for their pressure.

Liverpool, despite missing captain Virgil van Dijk through illness and with Mohamed Salah at the Africa Cup of Nations, held firm and were always a threat.

Alexander-Arnold hit the bar in the first half and as they grew into the game, Ramsdale saved well from Diaz and Diogo Jota headed against the woodwork.
