Emirates FA Cup:  Chelsea Pip Liverpool 2-0,  Secure Quarter -Final Berth

Chelsea secured their passage into the FA Cup quarter-final as they beat Liverpool 2-0 in an enthralling tie at Stamford Bridge.

Willian and Ross Barkley scored in each half on Tuesday night, as they inflicted back-to-back defeats on Jurgen Klopp’s side – who failed to bounce back from their first Premier League defeat of the season at Watford on Saturday.

It was the first time Liverpool had lost two games in a row since January 2019, and it also ended their hopes of an illustrious Treble.

Although Klopp’s seven changes would suggest he is more focused on the battles that lie ahead, including an attempt to overhaul Atletico Madrid in their last-16 Champions League tie next week.

For Frank Lampard, who won this competition four times as a player, it was a massive win and will help lift his players after some recent difficulties in the Premier League and Champions League. They will be in the hat for the last eight.
