Football sensation: Plymouth Argyle defeats Liverpool in the FA Cup!

In a spectacular cup round, Miron Muslic and Plymouth Argyle knocked the great Liverpool FC out of the FA Cup! Thanks to a penalty from Ryan Hardie in the 53rd minute, the losing team from the second-tier Championship triumphed 1-0 against the football giants. Muslic, who took over as coach in January, was visibly overwhelmed with emotions after the game. "I'm a bit speechless. It's very emotional because I realized it's the FA Cup, the most famous cup competition in the world and we were playing against Liverpool," explained the 42-year-old, who is celebrating one of the greatest successes of his career for Plymouth, as laola1.at reported.

A historic moment for music

Muslic's success comes after his second game with the team, with a 2-1 win against West Bromwich Albion just last week. “This is without a doubt the greatest moment of my coaching career so far, because it’s the FA Cup, it’s Liverpool,” he enthused, while also looking forward to the relegation battle. The Austrian coach sees himself as a role model for his players and wants them to use the big stage to show their skills. There are currently four points between Plymouth and the saving bank in the league. “The greatest success will come at the end of the season when we have managed to stay in the league,” added Muslic.

Liverpool FC, who only suffered one defeat in the Champions League phase this season, were unable to gain the upper hand despite an intense fight. Coach Arne Slot paid Plymouth respect for their performance and called their match plan impressive. “They deserved it because they played a very good game,” said Slot, while describing the defeat as painful, as nachrichten.at reported. With this historic victory, Muslic is now one of only three managers to have beaten Liverpool this season. A moment that will go down in the history books!
