Second-tier Plymouth sends Premier League table topper Liverpool crashing out of FA Cup in stunning fourth-round defeat

The Hindu  

Premier League leader Liverpool was knocked out of the FA Cup by second-tier struggler Plymouth after losing 1-0 in a stunning fourth-round upset on Sunday. “We all came here today with a dream,” Hardie said, “and we have done it.” Liverpool fielded a heavily rotated lineup, without stars like Mohamed Salah, Cody Gakpo and Virgil van Dijk who weren't even on the bench, but still had established internationals like Darwin Nunez, Luis Diaz and Diogo Jota on the field in a frenetic ending to the game as Plymouth was forced to defend doggedly. It's a different game for us because we're not used to playing these kind of games.” Liverpool manager Arne Slot congratulated Plymouth and acknowledged his team “hardly created anything at all.” “Probably our best part of the game was the last 10 minutes, so that tells you we kept on fighting,” Slot said. “But credit to them — good game plan and they worked incredibly hard.” Plymouth became the first club from outside the Premier League to beat a team that is leading the top flight since Wigan eliminated Manchester City in February 2018, statistic supplier Opta said of the FA Cup.
