Wolves 2-1 Liverpool: Report, Ratings & Reaction as Neves' Strike Knocks Liverpool Out of the FA Cup

Wolverhampton Wanderers have knocked Liverpool out of the FA Cup, with the game being decided by a wonder strike from the right boot of Ruben Neves.

In a first half plagued with individual errors, it was rather fitting that it was a mistake which lead to the opening goal, and it was Wolves who were the benefactors from the lapse of quality.

James Milner uncharacteristically miscontrolled a pass in the centre of the pitch, which saw the ball roll between his legs to an onrushing Diogo Jota, who clipped a through ball into striker Raul Jimenez. The Mexican then dribbled the ball completely unopposed into the 18 yard box, before keeping his composure and slotting powerfully beyond Simon Mignolet.
