Liverpool bounced back in style on Friday night, defeating Wolverhampton Wanderers 3-1 at Molineux to book their place in the **FA Cup quarter-finals.

The game started cautiously, with both teams struggling to create clear chances in the first half. Despite dominating possession, Liverpool F.C. could not find the breakthrough before the break. 

Liverpool came alive early in the second half. Defender Andy Robertson broke the deadlock in the 51st minute with a powerful strike from outside the box. Just two minutes later, Robertson turned provider, delivering a perfect cross for Mohamed Salah, who finished from close range to double the visitors’ lead. 

The Reds kept control of the match and added a third goal in the 74th minute through Curtis Jones, effectively sealing Liverpool’s progression to the next round. Wolves managed only a late consolation goal when Hwang Hee-chan scored in stoppage time, but it came too late to change the outcome. 

The victory was a quick response from Liverpool after suffering a recent league defeat to Wolves earlier in the week, and it keeps their hopes of winning silverware alive this season. 

Match Summary

  • Wolves 1–3 Liverpool
  • Robertson 51’
  • Salah 53’
  • Jones 74’
  • Hwang 90+1’
