Liverpool are into the FA Cup final for the first time under Jurgen Klopp. The quadruple bid is still alive.Man City pay the price for a dire first half.

FT: Man City 2-3 Liverpool

HELLO.Mahrez gets to the byline, his ball across the six yard area reaches Bernardo Silva and he slots it home.Four minutes of added time go up on the board. Four minutes for Man City to force extra time.

GOAL: Man City 2-3 Liverpool (Bernardo 90)

FT: Watford 1-2 Brentford

A huge blow for the Gunners as they lose more ground on the top four. Chelsea and Man Utd are their next two games.

FT: Southampton 1-0 Arsenal

A triple from Ronaldo has saved his team on a fractious day at Old Trafford.

FT: Man Utd 3-2 Norwich

A hammer blow for the Hornets.Minutes after Watford miss an open goal, Brentford go up the other end and captain Pontus Jansson powers home after some excellent play by Christian Eriksen.That may be the goal which relegates Roy Hodgson's side.

GOAL: Watford 1-2 Brentford (Jansson 90+5)

Back underway at Wembley, and just 70 seconds into the second half Man City have the goal they so needed.It's a move down the right wing, ball played into Jesus in the area, who holds it up impressively before playing square to Grealish to slam home.

GOAL: Man City 1-3 Liverpool (Grealish 47)

This is not a drill, Cristiano Ronaldo has scored a direct free kick!Man Utd back in front, potentially a huge three points in the top four race.

GOAL: Man Utd 3-2 Norwich (Ronaldo 75)

A remarkable half time scoreline, and Liverpool have been worth it - a dominant first half display with some fine finishes and a ruthless exploitation of errors.Man City have been really poor - keeper error aside, they have had no control in this game.

HT: Man City 0-3 Liverpool

If that's the game, then what a winner.Sadio Mane slams in a volley from the edge of the area after a slick build up involving five or six players, Thiago with an intelligent chipped pass to set Mane up to finish.Steffen was beaten at his near post, but it was a quality finish. Man City look dead and buried, barring a remarkable comeback.

GOAL: Man City 0-3 Liverpool (Mane 45)

Neither Watford nor Norwich are going down without a fight!Emmanuel Dennis finishes emphatically after Ismaila Sarr plays him in.

GOAL: Watford 1-1 Brentford (Dennis 55)

Great comeback by Norwich!Teemu Pukki finishes to draw the bottom side level at Old Trafford, netting off the post after a Dowell through ball.VAR checks, but the Finn is onside. Huge trouble for Man Utd here.

GOAL: Man Utd 2-2 Norwich (Pukki 55)

Zach Steffen, what are you doing?!Man City are passing it around their backline, City's cup keeper dawdles on the ball in three yards in front of his own goal, and Sadio Mane slides in to force the ball over the line.An utter nightmare for the American, who made an error to concede a crucial goal against Chelsea in the semi last year.

GOAL: Man City 0-2 Liverpool (Mane 17)

Hope for the Canaries!Kieran Dowell gets far too much space and powers in a free header from a Pukki cross.Nerves around Old Trafford now.

GOAL: Man Utd 2-1 Norwich (Dowell 45)

Big trouble for the Gunners in their top four bid.A Southampton corner is not properly cleared and Jan Bednarek sweeps in the follow up ball. Ben White had gone down near the goal, and was playing everyone onside.Arsenal facing back to back league defeats as it stands.

GOAL: Southampton 1-0 Arsenal (Bednarek 44)

Breakthrough at Wembley!First corner of the game, and Ibrahima Konate nods it home. His third goal in four games having scored in both legs of the Champions League quarter final.

GOAL: Man City 0-1 Liverpool (Konate 9)

Pinging back and forth between FA Cup and Premier League today (lucky me), and Man Utd have a second against Norwich.It's a second for Ronaldo too, as he heads in an Alex Telles corner.

GOAL: Man Utd 2-0 Norwich (Ronaldo 33)

Watford are slipping further into the abyss as Christian Norgaard puts Brentford ahead at Vicarage Road, finishing from six yards after Kristoffer Ajer's flick-on.The Hornets will be six points adrift with six games to play as things stand.

GOAL - Watford 0-1 Brentford (Norgaard 15)

And having so nearly trailed, Man Utd find the lead.Anthony Elanga does all the hard work to pressure Ben Gibson into conceding possession in the Norwich box, and it is fed to Cristiano Ronaldo to put the hosts ahead.A joint siu celebration between Ronaldo and Elanga. Nice touch.

GOAL: Man Utd 1-0 Norwich (Ronaldo 7)

Join us tomorrow for the second FA Cup semi final, plus European action involving Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, PSG and more, plus plus further Premier League action.You lucky lot. See you then.

That's it for today

Liverpool's Virgil van Dijk, speaking to BBC Sport: "We made it very difficult for ourselves in the end. We created a chance to finish the game. When they scored their first goal quite early in the second half it gives them a boost but overall we are happy to go to the final."It is about scoring goals and that is what we did in the first half. A perfect first half in that case but we pay City, the champions of England at the moment and it is always going to be tough."There are moments you will have to suffer. You have to show a lot of strength and togetherness. It was intense like the previous game against each other but we should have killed the game off."We go to the final now, we haven't won anything at the moment but it is a big step for us as a group. It is the only trophy we didn't win so we will give it a go."

"We made it difficult for ourselves"

The 2021-22 FA Cup final will take place on Saturday May 14, and Liverpool will be returning to Wembley for that.They will face Chelsea or Crystal Palace, who face off tomorrow.

When is the FA Cup 2021-22 final?

Liverpool double goal hero Sadio Mane to BBC One: "Today is special - we were playing one of the best teams in the world. To win this kind of game, especially in a semi-final, is a big, big, big win. We were very pleased to win and qualify for the final."We started very well, everybody started on the front foot - for my first goal the goalkeeper made a mistake but I think we pushed him to make that mistake. That is our style and I think that made the difference."On the possible quadruple: "We have a lot of games to go and we will try to do our best - it's our dream for sure and we will fight for it."

"Today is special"

Just when you thought it could not get any worse… after two successive defeats in the Premier League, Arsenal arrived at Southampton on Saturday in what appeared to be the last chance saloon in terms of the race for the top four.With games now running out, it was a chance they simply had to take. But instead they fluffed their lines - again.Charles Watts' piece on a chastening day for the Gunners is <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/news/arsenal-season-breaking-point-southampton-champions-league-dream-/blt3386195bf47a70e5" target="_blank">here</a>.

No way back for Arsenal?

On an afternoon where Manchester United needed an antidote to a growing toxicity both inside and outside the ground Cristiano Ronaldo stepped up.Despite his reputation, the five-time Ballon d'Or winner rarely scores from free-kicks, so when his 25-yard drive flew into the Norwich City goal to seal his second hat-trick in successive home league appearances, the roof came off Old Trafford.You can read Charlotte Duncker's piece from a remarkable afternoon for Man Utd <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/news/ronaldo-rescue-man-utd-season-saved-total-meltdown/bltdde9d179b62497e5" target="_blank">here</a>.

Ronaldo to the rescue

Man Utd goalkeeper David de Gea on their 3-2 Premier League win over Norwich: "Ronaldo has scored three very important goals for us. We know we aren't playing very well but we got three points. We should control the game more against Norwich at home."A massive win for us. We still have a chance to finish top four and we have to fight for it. We will fight for the top four until the last second."

"We know we aren't playing very well"

Salah shoots off target on the break, before Firmino has a chance saved by Steffen.This game has not hit the heights of the league match last week, but boy is this finale entertaining.

Liverpool should kill the game

...held by Alisson.Time almost up.

Sterling shoots...

Fernandinho volley deflected over.Liverpool suddenly hanging on...

Man City are pushing

The Liverpool midfielder has run the game today, and deserves all the applause he gets from around Wembley.Curtis Jones is on. Liverpool are nearly there.

Thiago gets deserved ovation

Guardiola finally makes his first sub of the game, Riyad Mahrez is sent on to replace Jesus.Sterling then fires a free kick well over from 25 yards.Man City need to find a goal back very quickly to make a game of this.Liverpool meanwhile make a double change up top, Firmino and Jota replace Mane and Diaz.

Last throw of the dice for Man City

Oleks Zinchenko attempts to head the ball back to Steffen, but mistimes it and Salah steals in. The Egyptian, who has been on a goal drought, cannot quench his thirst as he hits the side netting.A sub for Liverpool, Henderson replaces Keita.

More defensive calamity for Man City

20 minutes to play in the FA Cup semi final, and Gabriel Jesus seems certain to reduce the deficit to just one goal.He's played through one on one by a superb Grealish through ball, however Alisson is out so quickly and makes the stop.Still 3-1 to Liverpool.

Great save by Alisson!

The Senegalese forward fouls Fernandinho this time, and he goes in the book.Just over an hour played, Man City still have a lot of work on to save the game.

Mane takes his revenge

Fraser Forster is having a great game today, denying Arsenal from all angles.Southampton 1-0 up with five to play.<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">85: Fraser Forster again 🙌 This time it's Xhaka's shot that he makes a stunning stop from! [1-0] <a href="https://t.co/IgxxLQyYBP">pic.twitter.com/IgxxLQyYBP</a>— Southampton FC (@SouthamptonFC) <a href="https://twitter.com/SouthamptonFC/status/1515355465345114117?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 16, 2022</a></blockquote>
<script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

The Geordie Wall

Fernandinho flies in on Mane, and it leads to a bust up between the two sides.The Brazilian gets a booking, he's quite lucky that isn't more. Mane is lucky too, he's able to get up and keep playing.

It's all kicking off at Wembley!

Virgil Van Dijk seems certain to turn in a Trent Alexander-Arnold chipped free kick, but Nathan Ake slides in and turns behind for a corner. Excellent defending.Next goal is crucial in this game.

Close for Liverpool

Man City fans disrupted the minute's silence for the victims of the Hillsborough disaster before kick off, and the club have now apologised.A club statement reads: "Manchester City are extremely disappointed with the actions of some supporters during the minute’s silence before today’s game. The club sincerely apologises to all those connected with Liverpool Football Club."

City statement on Hillsborough boos

"You're not fit to wear the shirt" rings around the stadium.Man Utd 2-2 Norwich with 20 to play.

Toxic at Old Trafford

The Gunners still trail at Southampton, with Mikel Arteta throwing on Nicholas Pepe to replace Nuno Tavares.Arsenal fortunate with the Man Utd and Spurs scores at the moment as they push for top four.

Arsenal push for equaliser

The Liverpool midfielder barges down Jesus as he attempts to make a break down the right wing, and becomes the first Red to get a yellow.We have not had an officially registered shot since the second goal. That Steffen error has effectively killed the game at the moment.

Fabinho booked

The Man City centre back is caught in the face by the arm of Mane, and goes to the sun drenched Wembley turf as if he lost an eyeball.Once he calms down, the game resumes.

Cancelo down and writhing

Arsenal losing, Man Utd winning, Watford on the precepice...The three 3pm kick offs have resumed for the second halves.

Back underway in the PL

Alisson clearly feels empathy for Steffen as he plays a couple of dire balls out, one spinning away for a throw the other almost straight to a Man City player.Liverpool get away with it, but not a great day for either keeper so far.

Oh dear, look at these keepers...

Fernandinho clatters Luis Diaz and is lucky to avoid a yellow card, just a telling off from Michael Oliver.Free kick swung in from wide by Robertson is headed away. Man City need to get a grip here, concede again and surely it is game over.Gabriel Jesus then does get the game's first booking for a cynical tackle on Diaz.

Man City rattled

A flurry of goals there, here's how things look at half time in the Premier League:Southampton 1-0 ArsenalMan Utd 2-1 NorwichWatford 0-1 Brentford

PL 3pm half time scores

Red smoke fills Wembley as a Liverpool flare is thrown onto the pitch.The Merseysiders have started this game on top, pressing Man City, and got the goal they deserved. City not out of the blocks yet.

How can Man City respond?

Cristiano Ronaldo has now scored 20+ club goals in 16 consecutive seasons in all competitions.Whatever your thoughts on the man personally, on the pitch he is incredible.

Ronaldo the machine

Cedric has fired two free kicks from good positions wide in a matter of minutes.Arsenal are still being held 0-0 at Southampton.

Arsenal wasteful

Underway in the FA Cup, and Fernandinho - seemingly on his way out of Man City this summer after nine trophy-laden years - pings a superb raking ball out to Joao Cancelo on the right wing.He pulls it back for Jack Grealish, whose shot is blocked.

First chance to Man City

At the FA Cup semi final 33 years ago, 97 Liverpool fans lost their lives at Hillsborough ahead of the game against Nottingham Forest.A minute's silence is held, however is disrupted by a section of Man City fans, resulting in boos around Wembley. Very disappointing.

A moment of respect at Wembley

Liverpool and Man City players are both in the tunnel as You'll Never Walk Alone rings out.Here they come now. Huge game just minutes away.

About to get underway at Wembley

Having conceded six to Chelsea last week, Southampton keeper Fraser Forster is in no mood for a repeat.Two big saves already to deny Martinelli and Saka, keeping Arsenal goalless so far.One of my pointless claims to fame is that I went to the same school as Forster, albeit about five years younger. Who says these blogs are dull?<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">17: WHAT. A. SAVE. 😱 Sensational from Fraser Forster to deny Saka! [0-0] <a href="https://t.co/kVm8efB7zs">pic.twitter.com/kVm8efB7zs</a>— Southampton FC (@SouthamptonFC) <a href="https://twitter.com/SouthamptonFC/status/1515334162009530373?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 16, 2022</a></blockquote>
<script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Forster denying Arsenal so far

Over in Germany, Borussia Dortmund are not going down without a fight in the Bundesliga title race.They may trail Bayern Munich by nine points, but they are 5-0 up against Wolfsburg after only 38 minutes.<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">WE HAVE SCORED 5 GOALS IN THE FIRST HALF— Borussia Dortmund (@BlackYellow) <a href="https://twitter.com/BlackYellow/status/1515331824423157764?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 16, 2022</a></blockquote>
<script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Dortmund 5-0 up after 38 minutes

Pierre Lees-Melou plays through Teemu Pukki, however his effort is very well saved by David de Gea.Most of Old Trafford looks fairly full by the way, except for one section which hosts the majority of the portesting fans by the looks of things.

Early chance for Norwich

Huge points up for grabs in the Champions League and relegation battles. Who can take them?

Three 3pm PL games underway

There are protests at Manchester United today ahead of their game against Norwich, with thousands of fans demonstrating their unhappiness at the ownership of the club.They plan to only take their seats 17 minutes into the game - one for every year Man Utd has been owned by the largely unpopular Glazer family.Why are Man Utd fans so unhappy? <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/news/explained-why-man-utd-fans-are-protesting/blte401728811a36f5f" target="_blank">GOAL explains the situation here.</a>

Empty seats at Old Trafford

Kick off at 3.30pm, hopefully the glorious weather holds.
