Diogo Jota sends Liverpool to FA Cup semifinals despite wastefulness in 6/10 showing at Forest

Liverpool eased past Nottingham Forest 1-0 in their FA Cup quarterfinal clash at the City Ground on Sunday evening, setting up a trip to Wembley next month.

The Reds controlled possession for the majority of the first half but the only chance that fell to Roberto Firmino was wasted as the Brazil international tried to chip the ball over United States goalkeeper Ethan Horvath. A faster second half saw Diogo Jota presented with a chance inside the box that was tame, and Forest very nearly broke the deadlock on the counter.
