Sunday is a chance to make up for 2021

Of all the games lost to supporters due to the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic, the one that probably rankles most is Manchester United's Emirates FA Cup tie with Liverpool at Old Trafford.

It was the last time we met the Merseysiders in the competition, in the fourth round in 2021, and it is easy to imagine just what we missed as it was played out behind closed doors.

Yes, there was, of course, live television coverage, but the ground would have been rocking that day as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's men edged a pulsating five-goal contest.

It was one of those sweet victories where you fall behind, recover well but are then pegged back, yet still come out on top.
