Teenagers Lewis Koumas and Jayden Danns are on target as Liverpool beat Southampton to set up an FA Cup quarter-final tie with Manchester United.
Teenager Lewis Koumas scored on his debut and fellow 18-year-old Jayden Danns netted twice off the bench as Liverpool beat Southampton to set up an FA Cup quarter-final tie with Manchester United.
The visitors had further opportunities to level in the second period but remained profligate in front of goal. While Liverpool remain in contention for a quadruple, and can look forward to a mouth-watering meeting at Old Trafford in the last eight, Russell Martin's Saints can now give their full attention to trying to earn promotion back to the Premier League.After their Wembley heroics at the weekend, for much of the first 45 minutes, this looked like a game too far for an injury-hit Liverpool as their younger players struggled to make an impact.
Liverpool were hanging on but a moment of quality, plus some good fortune, gave them the lead on the stroke of half-time.
