Philippe Coutinho was the hero, as he celebrated his new contract with a sensational stoppage-time winner, in Liverpool’s 2-1 win, against a ten-man Bolton team and advanced into the FA Cup fifth round.
Steven Gerrard’s 700th Liverpool appearance looked set to end in defeat when a 59th-minute penalty from Eidur Gudjohnsen put hosts Bolton ahead in Wednesday’s fourth-round replay.
However, Raheem Sterling’s fine volley pulled Liverpool level with four minutes remaining – following the dismissal of Neil Danns – and the Championship side were subjected to further heartbreak when Coutinho, who signed a new long-term deal at Anfield earlier this week, found the net with a sublime 25-yard strike.
