An own goal secured Liverpool FC’s place in the fourth round of the FA Cup. The English first division football team won 2-0 (0-0) against record winners FC Arsenal.
The redeeming first goal for coach Jürgen Klopp’s team was scored by Jakub Kiwior, who headed into his own net in the 80th minute. Luis Díaz added in added time (90.5). The Reds had previously hit the crossbar of the Arsenal goal twice. The initially better North Londoners around the largely disappointing German international Kai Havertz had once failed at the crossbar.
Kevin De Bruyne celebrates comeback
Defending champions Manchester City progressed effortlessly. Phil Foden (33rd/65th), Julián Álvarez (37th), Ben Jackson (58th/own goal) and Jérémy Doku (74th) scored for the English champions in the 5-0 (2-0) win against second division team Huddersfield Town .
While coach Pep Guardiola had to do without star striker Erling Haaland, who still had a foot injury, Kevin De Bruyne, who came on as a substitute in the 57th minute, made his first appearance since mid-August. The attacking midfielder was out for a long time due to a thigh injury.
