LONDON (AP) — American goalkeeper Zack Steffen blundered to gift Liverpool a goal in Manchester City’s 3-2 loss in the FA Cup semifinals. City was already trailing 1-0 at Wembley when Steffen’s dithering allowed Sadio Mané to score Liverpool’s second in a meeting of the English Premier League’s top teams. Receiving a tame back pass from John Stones, Steffen dawdled controlling the ball rather than using his second touch to clear. It gave time for Mané race into the penalty to put him under pressure and slide in to nudge the ball over the line.
