The FA Cup semifinals are set, as Liverpool held off a stiff upset challenge from Nottingham Forest and its American goalkeeper Ethan Horvath to set up a tasty semifinal tie with Manchester City.
The Reds will meet City around a week after they meet in Premier League play at the Etihad Stadium in what’s being widely viewed as PL title decider.
Liverpool beat Nottingham Forest 1-0 at the City Ground on Sunday, hours after Man City got a soft penalty and overcame a loud St. Mary’s to produce an eventual 4-1 win over Southampton.
Elsewhere, Chelsea rode a couple of solid goals to a win over Middlesbrough, in doing so getting a London derby semifinal. Their opponent? Crystal Palace, who pasted Everton 4-0 at Selhurst Park.
The Football Association Challenge Cup was first held in 1871-72 and the record for most titles is Arsenal with 14, followed by Manchester United’s 12.
There has not been a repeat winner since Arsenal won the 2013-14 and 2014-15 FA Cups and will not be until at least next season now that Leicester City’s been bounced from the 2021-22 tournament.
Below is how to watch the FA Cup live, plus the full schedule, latest odds, score predictions and more.
