"Liverpool made no mistake at Molineux. They remain on the road to Wembley, and thanks to two players signed in 2017, two time-honoured club legends with now uncertain futures. Andy Robertson and Mohamed Salah scored the goals that took the game away from Wolves to soothe the pain of Tuesday's Premier League defeat."
"While Arne Slot had expressed disappointment at the Premier League's entertainment levels, a verdict hostage to fortune three days previously, his starting selection suggested an FA Cup exit could not be countenanced. Winning the trophy will not offer total job security but losing twice at the Premier League's bottom club in the space of a few days might well have been a felling blow."
"In Molineux's Stan Cullis Stand, two paintings of the late Diogo Jota by the former Wolves captain Jody Craddock were unveiled, a reminder of the long shadow cast over both clubs by the striker's death."
Liverpool secured a 3-1 FA Cup victory over Wolves at Molineux, with Andy Robertson and Mohamed Salah scoring crucial goals alongside Curtis Jones's strike. The win advances Liverpool toward Wembley and provides redemption following Tuesday's Premier League defeat. Manager Arne Slot made tactical adjustments, fielding Cody Gakpo in attack with Rio Ngumoha on the left wing. Wolves, managed by Rob Edwards with six changes, showed resilience but ultimately succumbed to Liverpool's dominance. Hwang Hee-chan scored a late consolation goal for Wolves. The match took place amid tributes to the late Diogo Jota, whose memory looms over both clubs.
