Newport County manager Michael Flynn has revealed that he is hoping that his side gets to play against Liverpool in the fourth round of the FA Cup after they sensationally eliminated Leeds United on Sunday.
Gaetano Berardi scored during the first half and after this, it looked as if Leeds would ease to victory.
However Newport drew level through an own goal from Conor Shaughnessy before Shawn McCoulsky scored a late winner.
Flynn, who is a fan of Liverpool, revealed that it would be a dream come true if his side gets the opportunity to play against the Reds in the next round.
“I thought we were outstanding throughout, but I knew we were going to put a performance in because they never let me down. They are an outstanding group and deserve all the credit,” said Flynn.
“Being a Liverpool fan, I’d love us to play at Anfield in the next round. But, really, it’s whatever makes the club the most money. Hopefully we can get one of the big clubs away – the money will be huge for this football club.”
