Liverpool responded in style after their recent league setback, securing a convincing 3–1 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux to book their place in the quarter-finals of the FA Cup. The result not only keeps the Reds firmly in the hunt for silverware but also eases the growing pressure on head coach Arne Slot.

The turning point of the match came early in the second half, with veteran full-back Andy Robertson producing a decisive three-minute spell that completely changed the momentum. The Scotland captain first found the net himself — his first goal since September — before quickly turning provider with a precise assist for Mohamed Salah, giving Liverpool firm control of the tie.

Wolverhampton Wanderers struggled to respond, and their hopes were finally extinguished late in the game when Curtis Jones unleashed a superb strike from outside the box, drilling the ball into the bottom corner to make it 3–1.
