Slot rues Szoboszlai mistake in Reds win

Dominik Szoboszlai scored a stunner and gave away a howler which disappointed Arne Slot, as Liverpool beat third-tier Barnsley 4-1 on Jan 12 to set up a home FA Cup fourth-round clash with English Premier League rivals Brighton & Hove Albion.

The Hungarian opened Liverpool's account with a long-range screamer in the ninth minute after Barnsley’s Davis Keillor-Dunn had bounced a header off the post inside the first 30 seconds.

Right-back Jeremie Frimpong, on his FA Cup debut, unleashed a tremendous left-footed effort in the 36th minute to put the Reds 2-0 up at a chilly Anfield.

Szoboszlai then veered from the sublime to the ridiculous in a moment of jaw-dropping carelessness that handed Barnsley a lifeline in the 40th minute.

Seemingly attempting to back-heel to goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili, the Hungarian instead left the ball perfectly teed up for Barnsley’s Adam Phillips, who spent eight years in Liverpool’s academy, to lash home at the Kop end.
