Liverpool 1-2 Wolves: Twitterati Brutally Trolls Liverpool As They Crash Out Of FA Cup
Jan 28, 2017 at 9:12 PM
Championship side Wolves piled more misery on Liverpool as they stunned their fancied opponents by 2-1 in the fourth round of the FA Cup.
With the Reds set to play Premier League leaders Chelsea on Tuesday, Jurgen Klopp rested the majority of his first team stars but the move badly backfired as Paul Lambert’s side took the lead in the very first minute when an unmarked Richard Stearman headed home from a free-kick. The visitors doubled their lead four minutes from the break when Helder Costa set up Andreas Weimann to round Liverpool keeper Loris Karius for an easy finish. Jurgen Klopp introduced the first team start Philippe Coutinho, Emre Can and Daniel Sturridge after the break but they failed to make their presence felt. Divock Origi scored in the 86th minute to set up a frantic finale but the visitors held on to advance to the fifth round of the FA Cup.
Here is how Twitter reacted to the match:

Nice try, rivals. No one hates Liverpool more than Liverpool fans themselves.

Wolves made seven changes coming into this game and still easily beat Liverpool 2-1. That's Klopp's third loss at Anfield in a row. Oh dear.

To be fair to Liverpool, at least they can now focus on not winning the league for the 27th year in row.

When Liverpool Win everyone says it because of Klopp … When they lose its because the players are not good enough !!! #JustSaying
