Ecstatic Oldham cast woes aside

Oldham 3 Liverpool 2

Twice in the first half, the 6’6” international business studies graduate benefited from poor goalkeeping from Australian Brad Jones, scoring either side of a Luis Suarez equaliser.

Team mate Reece Wabara marked the final day of his loan spell from Manchester City by scoring Oldham’s third before a deflected Joe Allen effort assured the League One side of an anxious and frantic final 11 minutes before they could celebrate reaching the fifth round for the first time in 19 years.
