Jürgen Klopp on Elliott 'fairy tale', Diaz debut and more after Cardiff win

Jürgen Klopp delighted in Harvey Elliott’s ‘fairy tale’ return after the teenager scored during Liverpool’s 3-1 win over Cardiff City in the Emirates FA Cup fourth round.

Elliott was back in the Reds’ matchday squad for the first time since September following an ankle injury and came off the bench to rifle in his team’s third goal at Anfield on Sunday afternoon.

New signing Luis Diaz also made an impact, the substitute setting up Takumi Minamino to slot in the second goal after Diogo Jota had opened the scoring with a fine header.

Liverpool will now face Norwich City at home in round five.
