On Saturday, in the first semifinal match of the English FA Cup at London's Wembley Stadium, the Liverpool footballers defeated the other team from the same city, Everton, in a principled match with a score of 2-1, and in the final they will try for the eighth time in the club's history to win the prestigious national trophy.
However, it was David Moyes' players who first took the lead when in the 24th minute of the game after inaccurate decisions by 'Reds' defenders, Jamie Carragher and Daniel Agger, the ball ended up with Nikica Jelavić, who easily defeated goalkeeper Bradley Jones.
In the middle of the second half, Luis Suarez took advantage of a rival's unforgivable mistake - the Uruguayan intercepted Sylvain Distin's pass intended for the goalkeeper and restored the balance of the match.
The decisive word was spoken in the match in the 87th minute by Andy Carroll, who scored the winning goal for the Liverpool team with a header after Craig Bellamy's penalty kick.
It is worth mentioning that this striker, who cost 35 million pounds sterling, brought three points to Kenny Dalglish's team on Tuesday during extra time in the match against Blackburn.
The Merseyside team will face the winner of the London "Tottenham" - London "Chelsea" pair in the FA Cup final. The clash between the two clubs will take place tomorrow at 20:00 Lithuanian time.
