City come from a goal behind to advance in the FA Cup at the expense of the Reds...

Coventry City progressed to the fourth round of the FA Cup after a memorable victory against Liverpool at Anfield

Around 4,000 Sky Blues supporters witnessed City overturn an early Jamie Redknapp goal to win 3-1 in the Third Round. Darren Huckerby, Dion Dublin and Paul Telfer scored the goals to secure the famous victory. 

Manager Gordon Strachan, speaking to the Daily Mirror, summed up the jubilation: "All my players were terrific. When you come to Liverpool you expect a hard game and I didn't think we'd win and create so many chance."
