FA Cup draw LIVE: Manchester United, Chelsea, Man City and Coventry learn semi-final fate

The semi-finals will be played at Wembley Stadium with the ties decided after the final quarter-final of the round Manchester United v Liverpool

'This team has something special' - Guardiola on City reaching sixth FA Cup semi-final in a row

Manchester United will play Coventry City in the FA Cup semi-finals after knocking out Liverpool at Old Trafford, in one of the most dramatic finishes to a match in the competition’s storied history. The holders Manchester City will take on Chelsea in the other semi-final - with a repeat of last season’s FA Cup final, between City and United, still a possibility.

Amad Diallo’s 120th minute winner in extra time ended Liverpool and Jurgen Klopp’s hopes of winning the quadruple, after the Reds had been minutes away from Wembley. Marcus Rashford scored a 112th minute equaliser, before Erik ten Hag’s side progressed.

Earlier today, Chelsea defeated 10-man Leicester in a six-goal thriller at Stamford Bridge, as Mauricio Pochettino’s side returned to Wembley after their defeat in the Carabao Cup final earlier this season.

Yesterday, the holders Manchester City – chasing an unprecedented double treble – beat Newcastle 2-0 to book their place in the last four, after Coventry City reached the semi-finals following their stunning comeback victory over Wolves.

The FA Cup semi-final ties will be played on the weekend of 20 April, with both matches taking place at Wembley Stadium.

Bernardo Silva settles FA Cup tie and makes compelling case as Man City’s most valuable player

In 2011, the FA Cup represented Manchester City’s first major trophy for 35 years. Now, for the second successive season, it may only be the third they lift in the space of a few weeks.

It is almost six months since Newcastle denied City the quadruple by knocking them out of the Carabao Cup, but the double treble remains very much on. The defending champions are off to Wembley again, becoming the first team to reach six successive FA Cup semi-finals.

And Newcastle, despite that autumnal victory, can testify still further to the depth of high-class talents in the City midfield.

Coventry stun Wolves in FA Cup thriller to reach semi-finals after Haji Wright winner

Coventry stunned Premier League Wolves with two goals in injury time to seal an amazing 3-2 win and book a first FA Cup semi-final appearance since 1987.

The Sky Blues went on to win the competition that year in one of the most famous finals ever and they kept their hopes of another unlikely triumph this season alive after a remarkable climax at Molineux.

It looked like they would be leaving with broken hearts after goals in the final 10 minutes, from Rayan Ait-Nouri and Hugo Bueno, overturned Ellis Simms’s opener and seemed to set a Wembley date for Wolves.
