In a poignant FA Cup clash, Liverpool delivered a fitting farewell to their legendary manager, Jurgen Klopp, securing a resounding 5-2 triumph over Norwich. Klopp, who recently disclosed his departure plans, faced his former Mainz teammate, David Wagner, in a match that became more than just a routine fixture.

Anfield echoed with an impassioned rendition of “You’ll Never Walk Alone” as Klopp, visibly emotional, watched from the touchline, reflecting on the nine remarkable years he spent transforming Liverpool’s fortunes. The game saw Curtis Jones, making his first start, open the scoring with a well-guided header, but a Ben Gibson deflection briefly leveled the score for a spirited Norwich side. However, Liverpool swiftly regained dominance, showcasing their attacking prowess with goals from Darwin Nunez, Diogo Jota, and a commanding header from defensive stalwart Virgil Van Dijk.

Despite a spectacular goal by Norwich’s Dorja Sainz, Liverpool secured the victory, emphasizing the players’ determination to add more silverware to Klopp’s illustrious legacy as he embarks on his final chapter.

Here is the highlight video of Liverpool vs. Norwich, which ended with a 5-2 victory for Liverpool.
