In the FA Cup fourth round, Liverpool secured a 5-2 victory against Norwich in their first match following Jurgen Klopp’s announcement of his departure at the end of the season. Curtis Jones initially gave Liverpool the lead, but Norwich’s Ben Gibson leveled the score. Subsequently, goals from Darwin Nunez, Diogo Jota, and Virgil van Dijk established Liverpool’s dominance. Although Norwich’s Ryan Gravenberch scored a late goal, securing Liverpool’s place in the fifth round, Borja Sainz pulled one back for the Hawks.

The atmosphere at Anfield did not feature a special farewell for Jurgen Klopp, with no mention in the matchday program or special banners due to the late notice of his exit. The academy took the spotlight, contributing to four of Liverpool’s five goals, with James McConnell making a significant impact on his first senior start.

While Norwich showed no signs of a promotion push under manager David Wagner, the yo-yo club seems to lack direction after the departure of Stuart Webber. Despite having talented players, Norwich’s trajectory reмains uncertain.

Notably, Darwin Nunez achieved a milestone, becoming the first player in Europe’s major leagues to reach double figures for both non-penalty goals (10) and assists (10) across all competitions this season.
