Non-league Havant & Waterlooville booked a dream trip to Anfield after shocking League One leaders Swansea in their FA Cup third-round replay.
In an action packed game, the Blue Square South side stormed into a three-goal lead through Garry Monk's own goal and strikes from Jamie Collins and Rocky Baptiste.
Swansea hit back through Guillem Bauza and Jason Scotland but it was Tom Jordan who sealed a fourth-round clash with Liverpool on 65 minutes.
The Hawks were ahead after just four minutes when Mo Harkin's curling cross was headed past his own goalkeeper by Monk.
And Havant grabbed a second on 25 minutes when an unmarked Collins poked home Brett Poate's corner.
Incredibly on 37 minutes Baptiste made it three after tapping in from Richard Pacquette's cross-shot.
Bauza pulled one back straight away with a brilliant 25-yard strike before Leon Britton saw his penalty saved by Kevin Scriven after Bauza had been brought down in the area.
The drama did not let up in the second half with Scotland tapping in after Bauza hit the post.
But despite Swansea piling on the pressure, Jordan grabbed the decisive fourth when he headed in Poate's cross.
Roberto Martinez's side struck the woodwork through Thomas Butler and Britton but it was Havant's night.
