Zack Steffen's old Liverpool tweet resurfaces after Man City howler

Manchester City goalkeeper Zack Steffen previously claimed Liverpool were interested in his services in a decade-old tweet which came to light during Saturday's FA Cup semi-final.

The 27-year-old found himself in the spotlight at Wembley Stadium after he was guilty of a calamitous error which gifted the Reds a goal. He lingered on the ball for too long in his own penalty area, allowing Sadio Mane to close him down and double the early lead Ibrahima Konate had given the Reds.

It proved to be an important moment during a dominant first-half display for Liverpool, with Mane further extending the lead with a fine volley just before the break. Steffen faced further criticism for being beaten at his near post by the Senegalese forward and eagle-eyed fans soon dug out an old social media post he made about the Anfield club.
