Subsequently, Alexis Mac Allister and Mohamed Salah scored goals for the away team just before the halftime break.

Antony, who came on as a substitute in the second half, scored a goal late in the game to tie the score and sent the FA Cup quarterfinal into extra time. On the other hand, Erik ten Hag’s team had to make a comeback after falling behind once more because Harvey Elliott regained the top spot.
