Remove a href from a specific domain not working

I want to remove every <td> containing an specific domain but i wonder why the regex is not working 

$html = preg_replace("@<td align=\"center\">(.*?)liversely(.*?)<\\/a><\\/td>@s", "", $html);

Here is how the html look like

<td align="center"><a href="http://liversely.com/lock?q=something" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://otherdomain.com/images/dlbutton10.png"></a></td>

I want to remove every instance of code shown above

This <\\/a> regex pattern present within the @ delimiters would match < then a \ symbol, then a forward slash symbol / then a> . But there isn't a closing tag like this . So your pattern failed to match.

Changing your pattern like below will match the input string.

@<td align=\"center\">(.*?)liversely(.*?)</a></td>@s
