Manchester City winger Antoine Semenyo has revealed that his side carried the momentum from their Carabao Cup triumph into their emphatic 4–0 FA Cup quarter-final victory over Liverpool.

Speaking to TNT Sports after the April 4 clash, the Ghana international explained that the team had set clear objectives following their Wembley success.

"We wanted to continue from the Carabao Cup final, and we carried on today," Semenyo said.

"We said from the final once we are back we wanted to score goals, defend as a team, and we did that perfectly today."

Semenyo found the net for City's third goal early in the second half, finishing off a setup from Rayan Cherki. His strike came as part of a dominant display that also featured a hat-trick from Erling Haaland and a crucial penalty save from goalkeeper James Trafford.

The 26-year-old, who completed a £64 million move to City from Bournemouth in January, has quickly become a key figure in Pep Guardiola's attack. His goal against Liverpool was his 18th of the season across all competitions.

For Semenyo, the victory was proof that City's recent cup success has not led to complacency. Instead, it has fuelled a hunger for more.

"Feels amazing. The team played really well today."
