http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Everton-c39043 in the semi-final of the FA Cup.
The Uruguayan footballer came into the limelight in the quarterfinal of the 2010 World Cup against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Dominic-Adiyiah-c11500 on the goal line, in the closing stages of extra time with his hands, to deny the African side the winning
goal. He was shown a Red Card for his illegitimate stunt by the match referee. The resulting penalty kick was stopped by the Uruguayan goalkeeper, to push the game to penalties.  The South American side went on to clinch the shoot-out 4-2.
After the match, Suarez went on to claim that the ‘hand of God’ now belonged to him.
The 25 year old conceded that he sacrificed himself for the team in the World Cup, and he is prepared to recapitulate the action against Everton, if it sees them through against their Merseyside rivals.
"The sacrifice I made was because it was so important for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Uruguay-c3035 to make the semi-finals," Suarez is quoted as saying in The Sun. "Now I want to win this semi-final. It will take an enormous effort but I am dedicated to the team. If I am obliged
to stop a ball in the last minute and we win, then I will repeat the action."
He arrived at Anfield from the Dutch side Ajax in January 2011, on a five and a half year contract, and since then hehas been the linchpin up front for the Reds. So far, he has scored 17 goals for Liverpool in his 46 appearances. However, he has also remained
in the midst of controversies in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Patrice-Evra-c29231.
The striker mentioned that winning matches for Liverpool has always been his top priority, and was hopeful that he won’t need any drama to guide his side into the FA Cup final.
He also backed Andy Carroll to leave a mark on the game, and thought that Kenny Dalglish should play him in the starting eleven in the derby match.
"The manager has not decided on the team yet but I believe if I do play alongside Andy Carroll we will generate a lot of danger.”
