I didn't want to say anything about today's Liverpool game because I didn't really like how the team approached the game. They completely underestimated Man Utd, lost sight of the price and lost. There were many chances to double or triple leads yet they won't make the efforts to take those chances and it was painful to watch Amad and Man Utd come back to get that win. Anyone watching would know that Klopp did a couple of things wrong today with some of his changes. Nunez was already too tired and there were replacements on the bench (See J. DANNS) yet he left him there. Nunez caused the 3rd goal due to fatigue.

Goodluck to other teams still in the tournament. I expect City to wipe off Chelsea and Man Utd to do a sent-forth for Coventry city.

I was very busy to watch the FA Cup quarter final game between Manchester United and Liverpool from the start of the game but I was able to join the game from the second half of the game and from the performance of the two teams, it's absolutely obvious that Liverpool should've won the game on normal time. They missed their chances and had to pay for it in the extra time of the game.
I'm not a fan of either of the two teams but I know that Liverpool and Manchester United are one of the oldest rivalries in English football so I expect players of both teams to always give their best whenever their facing each other. Manchester United did exceptionally well in the closing minutes of the extra time and that was why they were able to grab that late winner. It's a huge loss for Jurgen Klopp who is going to leave Liverpool at the end of the season.

What a couple of matches to watch over the weekend.
First with Coventry beating Wolves that was the shocker to witness because Wolverhampton were leading in regular time and then concede both goals in injury time.

Now today seeing Liverpool taking the lead into extended time I thought it was sealed for the victory.
But then Diallo scoring both goals separated by a minute each was very unexpected to take Man Utd with the win.
These type of matches if you had any skin in the games, you would be sweating pools watching.

This is called FA Cup magic, but dont underestimate and wright off Coventry so easy, they are the last remaining Championship team.
Man United is in better form now but I would not trust them or bet on them with small odds.
This is a big chance for both teams to save this season so everyone will be motivated.

Old Trafford remembered the old days in the quarter finals of the FA Cup. Today they did not stop remembering, they advanced to the next round, eliminating Liverpool. In the second goal scored by Liverpool, after Nunez's shot, the ball was in front of Salah and he scored easily.

Before that, Manchester United players and goalkeepers were too busy, it was only a matter of time before they made a mistake there, and they did it, and the result was heavy. If Rashford had scored that goal in the 90+3 minute, the match would not have continued, but the eventual winner was Manchester United in extra time.

I'm not very good at analyzing the outcome of a match, but in this fierce match Manchester United managed to convert luck into victory.
Rashford, who should have scored the winning goal at the end, failed to do so. In extra time, Rashford covered up his failure by making Manchester United's game closer to victory.

If Liverpool has Allister who is the highlight player, Manchester United has Rashford who is the highlight player because golden opportunities from Eriksen and Bruno Fernandes mean the player's energy must be maintained for up to 120 minutes.

Now is the time to continue predicting the 4 teams that will clearly face each other in the semifinals.
Manchester City vs Chelsea and Coventry vs Manchester United.

Klopp throws away this FA tittle those unnecessary substitutions that he made. Liverpool doesn't only lost the FA cup, they lost passion and confidence because they took the whole game for granted while united were serious as if it was a final match. It hurt to say but Klopp himself costs the match with baffling substitutions because I still don't understand why Nunez played the whole game and Salah was subbed off. Both the couch and the players on the pitch play as if no one cares simply because there is nothing to lose. They were the architect of their own downfall with so many chances wasted that contribute to their exist in FA competition. Perhaps, they will focus on the bigger picture now which is the EPL.

As for Chelsea against Manchester city, it's better to lose now in the Semi final than to lose in final. Chelsea played draw against Manchester city this season both home and away but this semi's draw is not a favorable one for the blues at the moment.

Liverpool players relaxed and Jurgen Klopps substitute spoiled the game for Liverpool. Another obvious situation was how poor Liverpool defenders have been today. Virgil Van Dirk with the partnership of Konate is completely sinking sand as they was useless they failed to keep Marcus Rashford silent on several occasions tonight.

Erik Ten Hag knew this game would be used to guarantee his stay as Manchester United manager at the end of the season. Against all odds, Manchester United jumps in to win the game.

The presence of Anthony today was effective, I have to give the Brazilian his flowers today. More shout out to Bruno Fernandez, as he played defensive midfielders role and also center back for Manchester United today, can you all see how much of a complete player Bruno Fernandez has been for Manchester United?

Kobbie Mainoo also with those entertaining foot works in the first half of the game. Erik Ten Hag choices and decsion making today all turned to be hundred percent perfect. Thanks to Amad Diallo and Garnacho for that last goal. The future of Manchester United is in safe hands.

Manchester United has played like the Manchester United of old
It was an interesting Sunday in my side, although as a Manchester United fan it would have been more fund if I watched the match. But only watching the review of the match left me some laughter on my face. Manchester United really played like the Manchester United of Wayne Rooney, Cristiano Ronaldo, Gigs, Paul scholes and the rest of them. They entered the match with a lot of confidence unlike how they used to chicken out before other top teams in England as Manchester City. Manchester United goal keeper was very good today and it seems that he has regained his lost confidence.

If I were told that Manchester United could perform this wonders I wouldn't have believe because Liverpool coach is bowing out of the club at the end of this season, as such he needed this trophy more than any other coach. I also need to thank Rashford for giving Manchester United the equalizer that brought them back into the match, despite that he missed so much opportunities. Thanks to the hero young Danilo. I am just happy.

Holy hell, this should not happen to a top team having a corner kick in the 120th minute of the game.
Poorly done by both Diaz and Elliott - these kind of errors are always super expensive.

United rewarded with a great semifinal draw - they play Coventry while City and Chelsea battle it out for the other finalist.

I think Manchester United take this match so seriously because they don't have hope for any trophy again this season except this FA, so that is why Manchester United do anything possible to qualify for the semi-final. I also don't expect that Manchester United will be able to disqualify Liverpool in this FA competition. It was Liverpool I was seriously hoping for to qualify for the semi-final, but lucky was not at their side to if not they were ready well and deserved to qualify too, but Manchester United lucky was lighter than Liverpool own. 
 
If Manchester United should be facing Coventry City, I will say that Manchester United have made it to the final because I know that Manchester United will look for a for a possible way to win the match, and from their performance, I believe that Manchester United is stronger than Coventry City. And as for Chelsea against Manchester City, I can't really say who will qualify for the final because Chelsea have met Manchester City twice this season and they ended up in a draw. 

Manchester United's path to victory had to go through extra time, if Rashford finished well then 90 minutes would have Manchester but fate said otherwise. Lol

Now Manchester United are comfortable in the semi-finals against Coventry City can be sure they will win because this team is different statistics will feel embarrassed if they fail in this semi-final phase but my hunch is unlikely to miss.

I predict the FA cup final will bring the Manchester duo together and we know who the winner will be? Blue

Liverpool had the opportunity to finish up the game with a comfortable win during the regulation time unfortunately squandered their chances the likes of Nunez, Diaz and Salah were responsible for those misses. Kudos to Man Utd who utilized scored their scoring chances, honestly and truly could have won with their last minute through Rashford missed chance, had Man Utd lost the match Rashford would have been blamed for that squandered opportunity, I believe Erik ten Hag substitutes changed the game especially when Antony came on and Amad the youngstar that scored the winning goal and consequently redcarded for removing his shirt during his goal celebration.

Liverpool underestimated Manchester United in the beginning until they were able to get the lead by the end of the first period then again by the beginning of the first extra time before receiving goals in the second extra time.
That was unfortunate for Klopp since he should win something this season before leaving Liverpool. There is English Premier League and UEFA Europa League that left for them and they aren't easy.

I find it difficult to believe that Manchester removed Liverpool in this competition, Manchester United scored what they used to call back days the Golden goal, Even Manchester United should have won Liverpool in the main 90th minutes of the game had Rashford scored that goal. Now the semi-final draw is at this moment out,
Manchester United will be facing Coventry city in the second to last game in the competition, whereas
Manchester city will be facing Chelsea in the FA Cup semifinal draw.

Liverpool threw their chances away, they should have won this Manchester United side that played very bad against Manchester City.  Manchester United have punished them for it, joy to the Manchester United coach who knew at the start of this game that his team had to be spectacular and composed to beat this very good Liverpool team this season. I do not still consider Manchester United as a team capable of winning the FA cup but so far they have been able to stop a potential winner Liverpool from winning a second title this season. The Liverpool players will really regret this opportunity because this was a game that they should have won.

The game between Liverpool and Manchester united today  was quite tight from the beginning of the game and even Manchester United could surprise Liverpool with a quick goal scored by McTominay in the 10th minute utilizing the rebound ball, 1 goal behind actually made Liverpool rise and they tried to continue to catch up but unfortunately Endo goal in the 36th minute was disallowed by the referee After Salah was caught offside, Liverpool mentality was very tested today with their ability to rise by scoring 2 goals through Allister and Salah before the first half ended and made the score 2-1 to the end of the first half.

In the second half Manchester United were able to recover after Antony was able to equalize the score 2-2 and even if Rashford was able to score when facing one-on-one with Kelleher of course the game would end quickly but unfortunately he failed to seize that the golden opportunity , but Liverpool who rose were able to score in the 105th minute through Elliot and make the score 2-3, Rashford who made a mistake before was finally able to pay for the mistake by scoring to make the score 3-3,  Finally, Manchester United were able to get the victory through Amad Diallo's goal after successfully utilizing a one-two counterattack scheme between Diallo and Garnacho.
Manchester United managed to break Liverpool's resistance throughout 124 minutes with a score of 4-3 today while giving  last 1 place to Manchester United in the FA semi-finals.

In fact, there was one gap that was not exploited well by the Manchester United striker in the final minutes of the match before the extra time session continued, namely Marcus Rashford. Even though it was the decision for the Manchester United team in today's match, it just passed by and now Liverpool have also regained their lead through Elliott's goal. Hopefully there will be a big surprise for Manchester United at Old Trafford today because the match is still very exciting to watch.

But your choice is all right, if you include Manchester United +1.5 also in your bet, then you are now getting paid your winning bet. Because after all, the asian handicap option is also only valid for 2x45 minutes if you make it before the match starts. Unfortunately, I personally only picked the team that qualified and of course I picked Liverpool but I regret it a little bit, because I forgot to make a bet with the asian handicap because that's a betting option that I like too.

But maybe Liverpool had assumed they would win because Salah was also replaced by Gakpo in the 77th minute but anyway, the reality is that Manchester United were still able to score their second goal in the 87th minute and make the match still continue into extra time at this time. Obviously, this match is very draining and stamina, moreover Liverpool has a busy schedule and competition in the Premier League is also still difficult. Therefore, hopefully Liverpool players are fine and do not suffer injuries from long matches like this.

United were unlucky to concede back to back goals in a game they looked like they played very well...and by the way that Salah goal might have had a foul in the build up and thought it would have been disallowed but fair play it was won fair and square which gave Liverpool an early advantage at the break of half time.

United managed to force the game into extra time after Liverpool could not hold onto their lead which allowed the Red devils to come back late on and seem to have the momentum to win this game...and usually in a game of football that has one team winning but allow the other to comeback ... this tends to favour the comeback team and I sense Liverpool losing this one...prove me wrong football gods
