Takumi Minamino kept Liverpool's quest for an unprecedented quadruple on track as his brace helped the Reds beat Norwich 2-1 to enter the quarter-finals of the FA Cup.

Minamino now has seven goals and one assist in eight cup games this season and since the start of 2020, the 27-year-old has scored more than twice as many goals in domestic cup competitions (nine) than any other Liverpool player.

Lukas Rupp's goal 14 minutes from the final whistle gave the visitors a lifeline but even a second-string Liverpool team were too experienced to succumb to late pressure as they booked their place in the sixth round for the first time since 2015.
