Antonio and Ogbonna hoping for another FA Cup classic

 

Michail Antonio and Angelo Ogbonna would love to recreate another classic West Ham United FA Cup tie when Birmingham City visit London Stadium in January, just as was the case when the pair scored in the 2015/16 replay victory over Liverpool.

Italian defender Ogbonna rose highest inside the penalty area to nod in an extra-time winner after Antonio’s opener had been cancelled out by Phillipe Coutinho. 

The clash is remembered fondly by Hammers everywhere, including the duo who played such a pivotal role that night.

Antonio said: “The best memory I’ve had is the first year I was here. It was the Liverpool match when I scored a volley at the back stick, and Coutinho put one underneath the wall. 

“Then Angelo scored in the 92nd minute. It was amazing.”

Ogbonna added: “It was a magic moment. That moment, not just for the goal, but it was the moment we turned around so everyone remembers that. I think it was the best moment.”
