Three days after shocking Liverpool in the league, Wolves host them again in the FA Cup last 16.

The Reds midfield finally appeared to be ticking on Friday evening.

The effective end of Wolves' campaign brought polite applause from home fans. Recent results have given some optimism in a sorry season

WOLVERHAMPTON, England (AP) — Andy Robertson scored for only the second time this season and set up Mohamed Salah for another goal as Liverpool beat Wolverhampton 3-1 on Friday to move into the quarterfinals of the FA Cup.

Such killings are not new but are typically carried out by wildlife officials.

Wolves are at the bottom of the Premier League table and remain almost certain to go down, despite their last-gasp win over the Reds on Tuesday. Head coach Rob Edwards replaced Vitor Pereira 11 games into the top-flight season and has improved the side significantly. In recent home games, he has sparked some much-needed positivity too.

Football is a different animal than the rest when it comes to professional team sports. These days, there are 17 games in a regular season, with faster and better all-around athletes that a high percentage of the time must damage an opponent to make a play.

Rob Edwards commented on one big difference in Liverpool’s performance against Wolves on Friday night compared to the teams’ previous meeting earlier in the week.DOWNLOAD THE OFFICIAL EMPIRE OF
