Gerard Deulofeu's extra-time winner, a six-goal thriller at Wembley and Steven Gerrard's disappointment at the hands of Aston Villa - there's been some cracking FA Cup semi-finals over the last five years. This weekend, before the coronavirus pandemic resulted in the suspension of football, we would have been settling down to watch four more teams battling it out for a place in this year's final. To help fill the void, BBC Sport have listed some of the best FA Cup semi-finals below and now it's up to you to choose your favourite.
Volna started the season with no win and no goal in the first 2 matches but have now won the last 2 league games scoring 4 goals. They are looking much better as last season with 7 points already after 4 games, while they collected only 21 points in total last year.
We acknowledge the decision made by the panel and are pleased that these matters, which occurred under the previous administrations of the club, have now been resolved," Bolton Wanderers chairman Sharon Brittan said. Our collective attention must now be fully focused on [manager] Keith Hill, his staff and players as we look to get as many points as we can to climb the League One table. Bolton Wanderers supporters and staff have shown tremendous patience and passion throughout and we are now looking forward to working together to continue the rebuilding of this great football club.

This would eventually be relaxed to allow unofficial competitive fixtures between regional sides in "Wartime Leagues", some of which were broadcast on the BBC, in recognition of the role the sport played in the health, wellbeing and morale of the country. Unlike the First World War, there was a cup competition - the Football League (War) Cup, the finals of which regularly drew crowds in excess of 50,000.

Giroud and Pulisic were busy but not clinical, though it didn't prove costly as Norwich never presented any real threat. In the end, it was a comfortable victory for Chelsea despite a lack of ruthlessness. Manager Frank Lampard will hope that clinical edge returns for a significant run of matches - they face Manchester United in an FA Cup semi-final on Sunday, visit champions Liverpool in the league next Wednesday and then finish the top-flight campaign at home to sixth-placed Wolves four days later.
Aston Villa are another side showing a remarkable inconsistency. They beat Newcastle last time out, but the newly promoted club have lost over half their league outings so far and find themselves just four points above the drop zone. The Villains do have undoubted talent in their midst, as their 5-1 demolition of Norwich in October showed.
No Liverpool return for Coutinho Liverpool have “zero” interest in bringing Philippe Coutinho back to the Premier League. The Brazilian has struggled for form since leaving Anfield in 2018 and is expected to be sold by Barcelona when the next opportunity arises. However, the Daily Mirror say he won’t be heading back to Liverpool, but could instead move to Manchester United or Tottenham.
Soon as they scored, no-one was looking at it but I felt for the opposition - it's the same moans and groans as we've had in the past.

Off the line! Zubeldia clears off the line to prevent Pique from adding a third goal for Barcelona from a corner kick. It feels like Real Sociedad are hanging on a bit here. Pique was completely free. GOAL! Real Sociedad 2-2 Barcelona: It's an equaliser for Real Sociedad! It's a blunder from Ter Stegen! The Barcelona goalkeeper spilled a fairly tame cross into the box and Isak was on hand to smash a strike into the back of the net! He made Ter Stegen pay for that! KEY STATS Barcelona have conceded 20 goals in La Liga this season and five of them have come from Marc-Andre Ter Stegen mistakes.
KEY MOMENTS 15’ - Oh my days! Ederson comes charging out of his goal to cut out a long ball for Tete .

Bournemouth's incredible story of moving from nearly dropping out of the Football League to challenging the country's elite is one of the feel-good tales of English football - but is it approaching its final chapter?A 2-1 defeat by Sheffield United at a stormy Bramall Lane on Sunday leaves Eddie Howe's side 16th in the Premier League, two points above the relegation zone having played a game more than three of the teams below them.
I don’t understand with the quality they have, the football they play. They could play proper football but they stand deep and have counter attacks," Klopp told reporters. We accept it of course but it doesn’t feel right tonight. I realise I am a really bad loser, especially when the boys put such an effort in against world class players on the other side who defend with two rows of four," he said.
I'm OK, just a kick on my knee, I'm fine. Midfielder Rodri has his first major honour with his new side having joined in the summer, and acknowledge Villa were tough opponents. Rodri grabbed the side's second for what proved to be the winner. We know they are a really tough team because they are really tall and strong, so we knew we could never give up.
Winger Anthony Knockaert looked bright and he and Mitrovic forced relatively comfortable saves from home goalkeeper Illan Meslier. The visitors were incensed that they were not awarded a penalty when the ball struck Tyler Roberts on the arm in the area as Leeds were left hanging on for the half-time whistle. It was a different story after the interval, as subs Alioski and Pablo Hernandez both made pivotal impacts to secure a vital three points for Marcelo Bielsa's men.
They start this weekend one place and a point above the bottom three but take on sixth placed Tottenham Hotspur. Villa have only won three of their last 12 league games and two of those have been against fellow relegation candidates. They just struggle for consistency in terms of getting results. However, they are far more consistent when it comes to conceding goals with only Norwich failing to score against them in their last 12 league fixtures.
Rostov is on 3rd place with just 3 points behind Krasnodar and a place in Champions League next season. They have a great season playing well in front of their supporters, having the second most points won on home ground. In their last game at home they beat TSKA with 3-2. But TSKA played with 2 players down and still was close to get a draw, missing a penalty at 3-2. Lokomotiv have the second best results away and has the same number of points as Rostov. For sure they will try to take some points from this game and I think we will see again a match with goals.
As La Liga president Javier Tebas - a man with his own agenda to press, who has nonetheless spoken out consistently against financial abuses in certain quarters - said on Friday night: “UEFA is finally taking decisive action. Enforcing the rules of Financial Fair Play and punishing financial doping is essential for the future of football.
Norwich were thumped by Fulham and although Southampton took the lead against Manchester United, the Red Devils fought back. So, heading into the closing stages, it was between West Brom and Crystal Palace. The Baggies won 2-0, although celebrations for the second goal were muted as Palace had just come from behind to lead at Charlton. With eight minutes left, Charlton levelled it up again. Then with their game over, West Brom players and staff waited on the touchline for Palace's final score: 2-2 - cue pandemonium at The Hawthorns.

That’s good progress for the hosts, who are providing an attacking threat at home having scored twice in four of their last five at this ground. They will be out to continue that having looked at this QPR side, who have shipped seven goals in their last two games against Charlton and Barnsley. That points to vulnerabilities for the visitors, which the Royals can exploit.
Brendan Rodgers' side should have extended their lead after the break when Harvey Barnes was twice denied by Dean Henderson after clever through balls by Jamie Vardy. The Foxes' top scorer also hit the post, and it looked as though Sheffield United might force their way back into the match after a second-half improvementThey came closest to scoring when Jack O'Connell's shot was tipped wide by Kasper Schmeichel.
But the role he played in one of the most dramatic moments of English football in the 1980s shouldn’t be forgotten either. You may well be familiar with David Pleat, tan suit and loafers flapping in the breeze, skipping flat-footedly across the pitch in celebration at Luton Town surviving on the final day of the 1982/83 season, but not quite so famous is why.
EB/Streymur were second to last in the league last season but were not relegated because the top 3 teams in the second league were reserve teams. Last season they lost 10 of the 13 matches at home. They also started this season with a defeat.
Reaction to Tuesday's Premier League actionAguero helps City come through tough testIt is hard to imagine that a manager who has won trophies wherever he has worked is claiming he can still learn from others, but that's exactly what Pep Guardiola said prior to this game. The former Barcelona and Bayern Munich boss spoke highly of Sheffield United under Chris Wilder, saying they are a team he can learn from.
I don't see too many goals in this match from Spain Primera and I think that we will see here maximum two goals, not more than that, even you never know in football, generally. So, Valencia is team who is playing pretty good at home and they are team who is so far, only in league, with Barcelona and Real Madrid without lose at Mestalla. Atletico Madrid is playing same as before - boring matches with very strong defense. In last round, they are scored goal in 5th minute for 1-0 against Granada, and they are finished that match with that 1-0.
This is a vital game for both clubs as they try to avoid relegation. Villa have escaped the bottom three and a win over Bournemouth would end a very successful week for them. Bournemouth can go above their opponents with a win in this game. They have had a miserable time but won their last home league game. A bet on over 2.5 goals to be scored in this game looks to be a winner with neither side that good at defending.
Having fallen short of automatic promotion last season, Leeds are making sure they’re far enough clear this time around. Given that they are on a brilliant run, they’ll be hoping to add another three points to their tally this weekend.
Jadon Sancho, who has been struggling with a groin strain, again started on the bench but came on to set up the second goal, scored via a low drilled finish by Achraf Hakimi. Shortly after, a VAR review led to home player Felix Klaus being shown a straight red for a high tackle on Manuel Akanji, that caught the Dortmund player on the calf. Dortmund's win means they are now a point behind Bayern but the reigning champions can increase this to four again with victory over Eintracht Frankfurt later on Saturday.
I think we need to take a step back now and start building the foundations again - getting back to the brilliant basics. Given the extended break before England's next fixture - set to be in September - it's unlikely Neville will be moved from his role any time soon, unless the former Manchester United defender decides he is no longer the man for the job. Will they be ready for Euro 2021?The squad meet up again in April for a training camp and Neville will lead a Team GB squad consisting of players from Northern Ireland, Scotland, Wales and England at the Olympic Games in Tokyo over the summer.
Norwich fail to inspire Chelsea (average position map on the left) had 69% possession in the first half and 11 shots from inside the box but only three were on target. Norwich (average position map on the right) did not have a single shot or corner in the first halfNorwich boss Daniel Farke said before the match he wanted his team to show a response to their relegation, have "pride" in wearing the shirt and "create good memories".
Inter may have to beat Barcelona to reach the last sixteen of the Champions League. That's a tough task, even if Barcelona make some changes. The Italian side have already been held to a home draw by Slavia Prague in this group and drew their lastest Serie A match. Barcelona never like losing, so a double chance bet on them winning or drawing this match is the suggested wager.
Media playback is not supported on this device Shrewsbury through to face Liverpool with last-minute screamer A successful season at Ilkeston earned him an opportunity with Crewe, but he spent most of his time with the Alex out on loan back in non-league before being released in 2018. Then, after finding his feet again last season at sixth-tier level with AFC Telford, netting 26 goals to end up as top scorer, Shrewsbury brought him in from their National League North neighbours last summer.
It is understood there has still not been formal contact between the clubs, with a seven-figure release clause yet to be agreed. Arteta has kept Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola fully informed of the situation. A Manchester City source said: "It's surprising to hear that plans are being made by Arsenal to unveil our coach as their head coach on Friday on the basis that no contact has been made by the club to discuss this matter.
The club filed an appeal with CAS in June in a bid to be able to recruit in the January transfer window, and Lampard was asked at a news conference when a decision could be expected. Very soon, I believe. Days, I think," he replied. I haven't heard any more, so I would wait and reserve judgement (on Chelsea's plans for January) until we get the judgement and see where we want to go from there.
