Late Strike by Liverpool Sends Arsenal Packing from FA Cup, While Man City Cruises On

Liverpool knocked Arsenal out of the FA Cup with a late 2-0 win, marked by a Jakub Kiwior own goal and a Luis Diaz stoppage-time goal, as the Reds secured a place in the fourth round.

Meanwhile, Manchester City easily defeated Huddersfield 5-0 with Phil Foden scoring twice and Kevin De Bruyne making his return.

Arsenal's string of missed opportunities continued, leading to their third consecutive loss across competitions. Despite dominating chances through Reiss Nelson and Martin Odegaard, their finishing let them down.

Liverpool capitalized in the second half, with an own goal from Kiwior following Trent Alexander-Arnold's free kick and Diaz's strong finish delighting their traveling supporters.

In other FA Cup action, Manchester City's victory was overshadowed by Manuel Akanji's injury. Foden's brilliance and contributions from Julian Alvarez and substitute Jeremy Doku, assisted by De Bruyne, cemented their win.

Several Premier League teams struggled, with Luton, Nottingham Forest, and West Ham all facing replays, while Leeds and West Brom achieved clear victories over Peterborough and Aldershot, respectively.
