“Well done kids” – Liverpool fans react to FA Cup draw against Exeter City

Following Liverpool’s FA Cup third round draw at Exeter City on Friday evening, we bring you the best social media reaction from during and after the game.

This was always going to be a tricky game, considering just how young Liverpool’s starting eleven was, and Jurgen Klopp will be relieved in some ways that his side earned themselves a replay in Devon.

For a while, it looked as though Adam Bogdan’s dreadful error was set to knock the Reds out of the FA Cup, but Brad Smith’s second-half equaliser spared the Hungarian’s blushes.

It was the senior figures of Bogdan, Jose Enrique and Christian Benteke who disappointed most, frustratingly, but the youngsters did themselves proud under immense pressure.

There was much reaction to what was a hugely inexperienced, almost unrecognisable Liverpool starting eleven:

A goal for either side in the first 15 minutes saw Twitter as lively as ever:

Bogdan’s error just before half-time, in which he allowed Lee Holmes’ corner to go straight in, left many bemused at the interval:
