Liverpool 4–1 Shrewsbury
by James Nalton at Anfield 

LIVERPOOL’S Brazilian duo Fabinho and Roberto Firmino scored the goals to see their side through to the fourth round of the FA Cup.

Shrewsbury performed admirably at Anfield, taking the lead through Daniel Udoh.

But they were soon pegged back by the hosts when 17-year-old Kaide Gordon found space in the box to get on the end of a cross from 18-year-old Conor Bradley. Their ages an indication of the type of side Liverpool fielded.
