Sky Sports’ Football Writers Analyze Saturday’s quarterfinals FA Cup with Ebechi Eze and Nottingham Forest Deadly Defensive Duo, which draws great praise.
Eze Magic makes fans of palace dreaming
What week it was for Ebechi Eze. Its first English goal on Monday. Objective and assistance to send the palace to Wembley on Saturday’s FA Cup semifinals.
In addition to Jefferson Lerma speculative salvo, Palace tried to worry about Fulham in the first half. But the speed with which Eze cut out from the left to his right leg, speaking danger and the surface was unstoppable, fired on a far column. Clean class.
His exact cross for Ismaila Sarr soon after the palace gave complete control.
Eze’s raw numbers may not be so engaging this term – it has two Premier League goals and six assists compared to 11 and four last seasons – but it is still electric and its performance in Craven Cottage was a reminder of its quality. With Eze Fit and Fire, Palace’s FA Cup Dream is real.

The Murillo and Milenkovice partnership is special
Did Nottingham Forest ever have a better defensive partnership than Murillo and Nikola Milenkovice? These two make history for this football club and lead their accusations of what is formed for them as a season of all seasons.
These two are definitely suitable for LACE des Walker shoes.
The third in the Premier League and only two games since victory in the main trophy. What season do they have.
Matz SELS proved to be decisive when he saved Jack Hinshelwood and Diego Gomez to send Forest to Wembley, but it was an excellent work Murillo and Milenkovice in 120 minutes when they were defense on top that provided the forest bed over 34 years. This was a clean sheet number 14 for the season in all competitions about pairing.
The strength and aggression of Milenkovice complements the elegant nature of Murillo’s game. They rarely look a few angry – as shown with Milenkovic’s noble punishment in a shot that found the lower corner. In this competition are the best pairing of the center back and could only take the forest all the way.

Fulham throws their great chance
Fulham fans were singing “We’re going to Wembley” when the teams were released in the first half, such was confidence in Craven Cottage, which Marco Silva would march at the National Stadium, 50 years after they got to the FA Cup finals.
With the opening of the draw and Fulham for this season, it seemed like a great opportunity to underestimate the progress made under Marco Silva. Their team also started with this belief, on the front leg in the opening part of the game, Rodrigo Muniz and Andreas Pereira, close.
But across the tie for their hopes for the finals of four.
Andreas Pereira gave the ball away several times in the last period, while Willian and Antonee Robinson were unable to cut the left left as it seemed to be a gameplan. Silva introduced its complete addition to offensive possibilities, but the inability to break through the organized side of the palace and defensive sinks – where was the sign of the header of the Ismaily Sarr? – It turned out to be expensive.
A quick reset is required to focus on the Premier League campaign that could bring European football. But this is low, the wound and long wait continues.

Factor 7-0: Brighton clearly didn’t beat it
Fabian Hurzeler said before the match against Nottingham Forci that he did not mention the defeat of 7-0 when addressing his players.
Maybe he should have.
Brighton played as a team suffering from a serious mental scarring of the tormenting experience of City Ground in the Premier League.
Since the first whistle, something was wrong about the Hurzeler team that worked so hard and played so great to get into this phase by defeating Chelsea and Newcastle. It should be an opportunity for them to catch, but instead they played with fear and created almost nothing in the leading areas until the second half of the time.
Even the inclusion of the chance of Diego Gomez, who was spent in the added minutes, was created by Brighton expected targets in 120 minutes of the FA Cup quarterfinals. They weren’t them. And it was a game to look back with great regret.
