EVERTON KNOCK 10-MAN LIVERPOOL OUT OF FA CUP
A dramatic late goal from Dan Gosling ensured that Everton knocked Liverpool out of the FA Cup at Goodison Park after extra-time on Wednesday evening.
The first half was a near non-event in terms of goalmouth action as neither goalkeeper was forced into shot-stopping action. They key moment of the half came when Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard had to be substituted with a hamstring injury after only 15 minutes.
Things improved in the second period, Leon Osman wasting the best chance of the 90 minutes as he struck a post, before Lucas was sent off for Liverpool after picking up a second booking as the game drifted into extra-time.
The extra-time period was tense and the game was looking like it was set for a penalty shoot-out. But, in the 119th minute, substitute Gosling found space in the box and shot home to give his side a famous win.
hmmm! i hope the reds won't walk alone bythe end of the season...
