Liverpool beat Nottingham Forest 1-0 in the quarter-finals of the FA Cup on Sunday. The Reds will now take on Manchester City in the semi-finals in what will be an enthralling contest.Jurgen Klopp named a fairly strong team, with the likes of Alisson, Virgil van Dijk, Fabinho and Diogo Jota all starting the game. Despite the difference in quality between the two sides, Liverpool found it hard to break down Forest.The Reds had to wait until the 78th minute of the game to break the deadlock, when Konstantinos Tsimikas found himself on the right-flank and whipped the ball in with his weaker foot to find Jota in the box. The Portuguese forward lunged at the cross and managed to poke it past Ethan Horvath into Forest's net.Here are some of the best reactions to Tsimikas' performance in Liverpool's 1-0 win against Nottingham Forest:🥤@TheImmortalKopTsimikas would start for 90% of teams in Europe, phenomenal player1:08 AM · Mar 21, 202270826Tsimikas would start for 90% of teams in Europe, phenomenal playerRaj Chohan@rajsinghchohanTsimikas weak foot assist, that’s unreal.

The Greek left-back put in a solid shift on the night, having won three out of four tackles, while also bombing up and down the left flank.
