A stunning counter-attack goal from Andreas Weimann saw Wolves seal a famous 2-1 FA Cup victory at Anfield this afternoon, dumping Liverpool out of two cup competitions in the space of four days.
Divock Origi pulled one back for the Merseysiders with just minutes remaining, but Wolves, who were resolute throughout, held firm, and might have even added a third as stoppage time approached.
Liverpool face Chelsea on Tuesday, where a win will take them within seven points of the Premier League leaders. It is, however, league or nothing now for Jurgen Klopp's men, who have seen Wembley dreams turn to nightmares with two consecutively poor displays at Anfield in both the EFL Cup and FA Cup.
It's now one win in eight in 2017 for Liverpool, with that win arriving in an FA Cup replay against Plymouth.
Here was the game as told by panicked Liverpool fans - many of whom believe their season has been effectively ended by three defeats inside a week.
Liverpool in 2017:

Liverpool could be out of 3 competitions in 6 days. Embarrassing. Questions really need to be asked. Entire month to improve wasted. #LFC

3 home games in a row. 3 straight defeats. Unheard of. #LFC now in a full blown crisis as season has completely unraveled. Disastrous week.

Wolves have a kid in goal who conceded 6 goals in 2 Championship games he's played yet Liverpool haven't tested him once. Woeful #LFC #FACup

Question: Has Klopp ever had to work on getting out of a rut this big before? #managerialtest #LFC #Dortmund

Tired legs, slow thinking, fighting spirit gone, no shots on goal, no ideas. Crisis. #LFC
