THIS IS FOOTBALL

Liverpool F.C. are in red hot form right now. They are leading the Premier League Table and are even the Table Toppers in the UEFA Champions League. Furthermore they are also the finalists of this year's Carabao Cup Tournament and are favorites to win the same. However, on 9th of February, 2025 something unexpected happened. Some even call it the greatest upset in the history of FA Cup as a lower division club Plymouth Argyle F.C. knocked out the mighty Liverpool from the 4th Round of the FA Cup. 

Before the start of the game no one outside UK even knew where this club existed in England. But, at the end of 90 minutes entire world got to know about them. Yes the Club won the game by a thin margin of 1-0, but a win is a win. And a win against the Mighty Reds is no small feat. On one hand wherein the Premier League Clubs are struggling to survive against Liverpool, this club from Plymouth  not just survived, but rather knocked them out. I guess this is what football is all about. 

The Legend of the Beautiful Game continues.
