Dom's cup shocker - but Reds avoid their SZOB story

Talk about going from the sublime to the ridiculous.

Such was a landmark evening, for more reasons than one, for Dominik Szoboszlai.Ultimately, though, it ended with the Hungary international playing his part in helping Liverpool negotiate a potential banana skin and extend their unbeaten run to 11 games in all competitions.

While the final scoreline suggests a comfortable victory over plucky League One outfit Barnsley, this, though, does not take into account the season the Reds are experiencing under Arne Slot.

Having seemed on the way to a much-needed night of comfortable progress, Liverpool needed a late brace from substitutes Florian Wirtz and Hugo Ekitike to eventually see off the visitors.
