Fan Jo Benwell said: “It was incredible, it was such a magical afternoon.”

The Pilgrims progressed to the fifth round of the competition after a 1-0 win at Home Park on Sunday. It is the first time the Devon side have beaten Liverpool since February 1956.

Ms Benwell said: “At the final whistle I just burst into tears, sharing that moment with my child, hoping that in 20 to 30 years she’ll still be talking about it.

“I couldn’t sleep [on Sunday night], just scrolled social media taking in reactions – it was great.”

Plymouth Argyle lost to Liverpool in 2017, following an away draw, which earnt them a replay at Home Park that year.

Speaking to the BBC after the game on Sunday, one fan said: “Eight years ago we went up to Liverpool, drew 0-0, we came back to here and they beat us 1-0.

“We’ve got victory at last.”

Another fan added: “I’m ecstatic, it’s amazing.”
