Brighton dump Liverpool out of FA Cup, Wrexham denied Hollywood ending

Brighton dumped FA Cup holders Liverpool out of the competition on Sunday as Hollywood star and Wrexham co-owner Ryan Reynolds saw his non-league side denied a dramatic win by Sheffield United in a six-goal thriller.

Kaoru Mitoma's brilliant control and finish in stoppage time to seal a 2-1 win for Brighton was another enormous blow to Liverpool, whose season is unravelling just months after they came close to winning a historic quadruple.

The Japanese winger cushioned Pervis Estupinan's cross into his path, flicked the ball over Joe Gomez and fired high past Alisson Becker in the 92nd minute.

"He is an incredible player who I think can play one step higher," said Brighton boss Roberto De Zerbi. "I am pleased for his goal."

Liverpool are languishing in ninth place in the Premier League, 21 points behind pacesetters Arsenal.

Jurgen Klopp described Brighton's 3-0 win when the sides met earlier this month as a "horror show".

"I am not over the moon about this performance but, again, the only thing that happened really is that we lost against a good side, who we lost to two weeks ago in a horrendous game," said Klopp. "Today was much better.

"We are obviously in a situation where we constantly want to make the final step. That's why it feels now
