Who won: Man United 1-0
Manchester United beat Liverpool 1-0 on Sunday, January 9, 2011 at Old Trafford. Goals for Man United: Ryan Giggs (2').
Play by play
Spurs are safely through to the fourth round, they've beaten Charlton 3-0 at White Hart Lane.
<b>FULL TIME</b> United have won it thanks to Ryan Giggs' first-minute penalty. The reward of the spot kick was highly contentious, but the red card awarded to Steven Gerrard was anything but. His two-footed lunge on Michael Carrick was a certain sending off and it ultimately cost his team.
