The outcome of the 22/23 FA Cup 1/32 Final will have to wait at least a few more days, and after a 2-2 draw against Wolverhampton, the Reds missed the opportunity to save a game in the tight schedule that awaits them, and will now have to play the replay at Molineux Stadium, home of Wolves in the coming days, once the FA makes it official, thus putting one more game of pressure on Klopp, who left Anfield frustrated.

Klopp, who after the game accepted the criticism levelled at him and his approach on the pitch, said. "During the whole game we didn't win enough challenges. It's true, it wasn't much fun for the Liverpool fans who thought we would win the series in 90 minutes and now we have to make another trip to Wolverhampton," said the German manager, who also said he was already thinking about the next game against Brighton Hove Albion.

Impressing Jürgen Klopp is not easy, as he is a man who knows about football and is regarded as one of the best coaches in the world, but what he saw on Saturday night at Anfield left the German open-mouthed. Gonçalo Guedes' quality was rewarded when he scored early on to open the scoring for the visitors, who repeatedly put the reigning champions on the ropes.

The 26-year-old Guedes has had a long career in top European football. A product of Benfica's Eagles academy, Guedes made the leap from the first team to Paris Saint-Germain in 2017, who bought him and loaned him to Valencia CF for a season before returning to the French capital and being formally sold in 2028 to the Spanish club, who decided to sell him last summer to Wolves, who are now coached by Julian Lopetegui.

In several TV shots, Klopp was surprised by the quality of the Portuguese who often broke down the Reds' defence led by Matip and Konaté who are covering for the loss of area leader Virgil van Dijk who will be out for at least a month with a hamstring problem. In the end Guedes was the best qualified, being the player of the match, recognition that served to have a rematch with the Reds now at home, for the passage to the 1/16 of the FA Cup Final.
