Would you believe it, had a chance there after Crouch was saved, and we hit the post, thats it then.

Was unlucky.

4/5 now.

Please don't lose this

Im so nervous

Who can watch these shoot outs argh!

Quality from Milner. I got the 5 all right. Sudden deaths who knows.

Well it has been years since Stoke reached the final

Kirkland earn your new contract!!

Mig saves!

Great pen from Joe Allen

Wow, just wow! were through!

Allen you beauty

Looks like he was the saviour afterall!

Now that my heart has started to return to normal pace, shame it had to go to pens, but Wembley here we come

Luck was on our side for a change. Unlucky Stoke.

Through by the skin of our teeth. We're going to Wembley!

Awesome.We certainly showed the character that was missing in the 90minutes in that shoot out.Getting over the line in an intense semi final like that might do us more good in the long run than if we'd cruised through.Full credit to Stoke, despite the goal being in their favour they came wanting to overturn the deficit and did that in 90mins.

Wembley bound for the first time in 4 years. We really need to make up for our last visit there next month.

I am happy to be in a cup final but i am struggling to find a positive out of such a crap performance.

I've gone from shaking like a leaf with fear, to scaring the neighbours to death with whoops of delight!!

Wearing my best Happy now!

Liverpool, you always bluddy have to wind us up don't you!

*coughs* Their goal was a bit fortunate in normal time *coughs*

We won a shoot out, got to the final and Flanagan got nearly a whole game under his belt after being out for so long.

I'll take those for now

Not just cos of the pen but Allen does really deserve a start in the side. His in good form.

Meh. We may have played poor, but so did Stoke. And they're goal was offside as well, as so I'd say we just about deserved to go through ahead of the opposition.

Everyone had a bad game really, apart from maybe Firmino and Milner. Mignolet of course was the hero in the shootout, but for all his faults, we already knew he was good at penalties, didn't we?

All those fans saying we deserved to lose this semi seemed to have forgotten how equally poor Stoke were in the first leg. It was pretty even over both legs in that respect so penalties was about right and we won that lottery thankfully.

Kirkland??

I thought Flanno played a bit more than 90 mins tonight, but maybe I have that wrong.

It would have been rough justice had we been beaten by an offside goal.

Anyone think all these games recently had an effect tonight. We looked flat and now again another game on Saturday after 120 mins.
