The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Steven-Gerrard-c34196 reserved a few words of praise for Reds number nine.
Liverpool will face either Harry Redknapp’s Tottenham Hotspur or http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 side in the final of the FA Cup, after dumping Everton out of the competition following a superb come back.

Jelavic wheeled away in ecstasy, followed by his teammates while Liverpool were left to wonder whether this would end the match losing to their traditional rivals.
However, the goal only seemed to cause the Reds to shift up a gear as they dominated the match from that point onwards. All the pressure finally paid dividends when Luis Suarez latched onto a weak back-pass by http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Sylvain-Distin-c34430 and calmly beat Everton keeper,

It was all Liverpool from that point onwards yet Everton were resilient and withstood wave after wave of attacks from the Reds, before Andy Carroll managed to rise the highest following a http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Craig-Bellamy-c9471 free-kick and nodded the ball into the back of the net
with barely four minutes of normal time left of the clock.
It was Carroll’s second goal in two matches and Reds’ skipper reserved special words of praise for the former Newcastle United striker after the match.
“Andy (Carroll) is always in the spotlight because of how much we paid for him but I think on days like this one he shows his critics what he is all about.” Said Gerrard.
He continued, “We are pleased to have him, he has stepped up today, he has taken the criticism on the chin and he has responded very well and is the hero getting us the winner.”
Carroll seems to be recapturing the sort of form that made him an icon at Newcastle United and that can only be a positive for Kenny Dalglish who now have another cup final to look forward to.
