Liverpool's youngsters took care of business in the FA Cup replay against Shrewsbury Town on Tuesday, beating the League One side 1-0 thanks to a bizarre own-goal to book their ticket for the fifth round.

Former Manchester United prospect Ro-Shaun Williams headed the ball into his own net in the second half, giving the Reds a lead they wouldn't relinquish. The hosts didn't create many chances, but they were the better team and deserved the win.

The Reds fielded a team consisting entirely of youngsters and backups, with even manager Jurgen Klopp absent from the bench:
