The magic of the FA Cup delivered yet another unforgettable chapter as Plymouth Argyle, rock-bottom in the Championship, stunned Premier League leaders Liverpool with a sensational 1-0 victory at Home Park.

Liverpool dominated the first half, piling on relentless pressure in search of an opener. However, Plymouth stood firm, defending resolutely to keep the Reds at bay and head into the break with the scores level.

Sensing an opportunity to make history, Plymouth emerged from halftime with newfound belief. Just seven minutes into the second half, a moment of drama unfolded. Darko Gyabi, showing incredible composure, flicked the ball over his head inside the box, only for it to strike Harvey Elliott’s raised arm. The referee had no hesitation—penalty to Plymouth!

Ryan Hardie took on the responsibility and delivered a moment for the ages, calmly sending Caoimhin Kelleher the wrong way. Home Park erupted as Plymouth found themselves in front against all odds giving credence to coach Muslic assertion that they are ready to do what many feels it’s impossible

Liverpool threw everything forward in response, with wave after wave of attack, but Plymouth’s last line of defense, goalkeeper Conor Hazard, delivered a heroic performance. His standout moment came when he produced a stunning fingertip save to deny Darwin Núñez’s powerful header, preserving his side’s historic lead.

Despite relentless pressure from Arne Slot’s men, Plymouth held their ground until the final whistle, securing a famous FA Cup upset that will be remembered for years to come. The Premier League leaders—out! The Championship strugglers—through!
