JAKARTA - Liverpool will face Manchester City in the FA Cup semifinal at Wembley Stadium on Saturday, April 16 at 21.30 WIB. Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp thinks this match will be fierce.

Klopp even said that the meeting with City was predicted to be like the 2021/2022 English Cup final. At that time, Liverpool played up to 120 minutes against Chelsea before finally winning on penalties.

"It's a very intense fight at a very high level. The level of concentration the players have to bring on the pitch is insane," Klopp said.

"It could be very similar to the England Cup final against Chelsea. For 120 minutes, it's incredible how intense it is in all aspects. That's why it's so interesting."

Klopp asked his players to give their all to win the game. He saw, this is like a final match.

"However, against (Manchester) City you always have to see it as a final. But now it's a semi-final," Klopp said.

"That means the only way to reach the final and we actually want to go there. It has to be treated like a final, we have to do it."

Liverpool and City have met twice in the Premier League for the 2021/2022 season. Interestingly, from the two meetings there was no winner because the match always ended without a winner with a score of 2-2.
