Key Highlights

  • It was the first time in Everton’s history they had failed to score a single penalty in a shootout, and they became only the second top-flight team to lose an FA Cup shootout without scoring after Blackburn, also against Sunderland, in 2003.“I don’t think you blame anybody when you lose a penalty shootout.
  • It’s something that can happen, the goalkeeper is there to make saves,” said Moyes.
  • “But I think there is a way to lose if you’re going to do that.
  • It felt as if we didn’t do it in that way and that’s why we have all walked away with huge disappointment.“We did a great job to get back in the game and get ourselves level with what was available but when we get to that point you’re hoping to go on and show it and it was poor.
  • I didn’t think the way we lost it today was the right way.”Lamine Cisse scored a stunning 88th-minute winner as 2011 FA Cup runners-up Stoke beat Championship leaders Coventry 1-0 at the bet365 Stadium.
