Unbeaten Premier League leaders Liverpool took an early lead over the Gunners, courtesy of an embarrassing own goal from German defender Mustafi. Attempting to clear an Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain cross, Mustafi only managed to prod the ball past Emiliano Martinez into his own net. Arsenal equalised shortly after Mustafi’s own goal through Lucas Torreira with Mesut Ozil being  heavily involved in the build-up.

It was a highly intense match, with goal after goal going in. Eventually it finished at 5-5 and went to penalties. Liverpool scored all five of theirs and will be going through to the next round thanks to a save from Caoimhin Kelleher denying Dani Ceballos' spot-kick.
