Liverpool news: Reds are far from being Manchester City's 'dream draw' in FA Cup, says Jurgen Klopp
Liverpool progressed to the FA Cup semi-finals on Sunday afternoon after edging past Nottingham Forest, but a clash against rivals Manchester City awaits them at Wembley.
Jurgen Klopp's side kept themselves in contention for the quadruple on Sunday, with Diogo Jota's goal enough to book the Reds a spot in the FA Cup semi-finals.
It's a tournament Liverpool have failed to win since 2006, but with just two games now standing between them and the trophy, the Reds have a great chance to end that drought this year.
However, after seeing off Forest, Liverpool were drawn against title rivals Manchester City in the semi-finals, who they'll face at Wembley just six days after their Premier League clash on April 10.

It adds to a hectic schedule for the Reds, who also face Benfica next month in the Champions League quarter-finals as well as a visit from Manchester United.
The German coach also insisted that his side will make it tough for City, and added that his team are not Pep Guardiola's "dream draw".
The international break will give some players a much-needed rest before they return to action on April 2 against Watford.
