More than 6,000 fans cheered on Exeter City as they took on Liverpool in the second leg of their FA Cup encounter.

The Grecians lost 3-0, but the supporters were winners on the night, cheering on their side until the final whistle.

BT sport presenter Jake Humphrey praised the fans for their commitment in making the 250-mile journey from Devon to Mersyside.

Exeter gave it their all against the Premiership side but the gap between the divisions was too much in the end.

Klopp fielded a slightly more experienced line-up for this replay than the one at Exeter, which had just three players boasting more than four first-team appearances.

Joe Allen opened Liverpool's account scoring from close range.

The second came from Sheyi Ojo, put through by Jordon Ibe, curled in beyond Robert Olejnik, while Joao Teixeira sealed the victory with his first goal for the Reds.

Jurgen Klopp's men will now prepare to host West Ham.
