Within a week of a devastating 3-1 loss against Bolton in the EPL, Liverpool came back in style against the Manchester clubs. First was a 2-2 tie against Manchester City, resulting a 3-2 win on aggregate and a place at Wembley for the Carling cup final against Cardiff City on 2/26/2012. Three days later came a fantastic 2-1 win against Manchester United in the 4th round of the FA cup. Dirk Kuyt scored for the first time in the season to help bring Liverpool over the top. Liverpool will meet Brighton at home on 2/18/2012 for the 5th round of the FA cup. The two teams met for an earlier round of the Carling cup with Liverpool taking home a 2-1 win.
Maybe 3 points for the EPL later today?!
