Rodgers: Reds will learn from loss

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers hopes his players will learn from another chastening big-game defeat after admitting his side were inhibited by their Wembley appearance.

Philippe Coutinho’s third FA Cup goal of the season gave the Reds the lead after half an hour, but Aston Villa fought back to win the last-four encounter 2-1 through Christian Benteke, with his ninth goal in seven games, and Fabian Delph.
