Aston Villa shocked Liverpool to reach the FA Cup final to take on Arsenal in May. Philippe Coutinho fired Liverpool ahead with a smart chip before a long range Chrisitan Benteke strike equalised for Aston Villa. Tim Sherwood's side moved into the lead thanks to a solo effort from Fabian Delph and held on for the famous victory. Here, Sportsmail's Laurie Whitwell rates the players' performances at Wembley Stadium. The Aston Villa players celebrate after Fabian Delph (centre) fires Tim Sherwood's side into the lead . Aston Villa (4-1-2-1-2) Shay Given 6.5 . Could not do anything to prevent Coutinho’s deflected goal, in the second-half claimed balls with confidence to sweep away worries. Leandro Bacuna 6 . A better weight of pass to Benteke when Villa had a three on one break-away would have put the game to bed. Gave an attacking edge down right. Ron Vlaar 6.5 . The kind of performance he gave for Holland at the World Cup, strong and no-nonsense when required, booting the ball to safety. Nathan Baker 6 . His race was run by the 26th minute when landing heavily on his left knee and going off injured. He has had knee troubles all season. Aston Villa midfielder Ashley Westwood out muscles Liverpool striker Mario Balotelli in the FA Cup semi-final . Kieran Richardson 6 . May have rued not doing better with his chance on the hour, skying high with the goal beckoning, but cleared off the line in the dying moments. Ashley Westwood 6.5 . Did well overall on his first start since the quarter-final against West Bromwich Albion on March 7. Nothing spectacular, but kept play moving. Tom Cleverley 7 . Provided plenty of bite in midfield, snapping into tackles and covering ground. ‘That’s b******* Michael [Oliver],’ he could be seen saying when a decision went against him. Fabian Delph 8 . Could have done better for Liverpool’s goal but atoned in spectacular style. His drive created the equaliser, and the winner was an excellent finish of poise. Jack Grealish 7.5 . A dream debut at Wembley for this 19-year-old. Incredibly composed, making smart decisions for both goals, and exhibiting beguiling touch and balance. Charles N’Zogbia 6.5 . Good early snap shot to test Mignolet and provided a quick attacking outlet. But annoyed Sherwood with over hit cross to Benteke. England midfielder Fabian Delph fires in Aston Villa's second in the FA Cup semi-final against Liverpool . Aston Villa midfielder Tom Cleverley closes down Liverpool full back Alberto Moreno at Wembley . Christian Benteke 7.5 . Undoubtedly back to his best. Showed early his strength would be a problem for Liverpool, bullying Skrtel, and his finish was laser accurate. Subs: . Jores Okore (for Baker 26’) 6 . Caught a little cold for goal, deflected off his knee. Got better and made a couple of telling interceptions. Scott Sinclair 5 (for N’Zogbia 75’). Cole (for Grealish 83’) Tim Sherwood 7.5 . Got this spot on. Refused to take a back step despite the blow of Gabby Agbonlahor’s injury and had the confidence to trust Grealish onto this stage. Christian Benteke roars in celebration having scored Aston Villa's equaliser against Liverpool . Liverpool (3-4-3) Simon Mignolet 6 . Produced a fine fingertip save from N’Zogbia early on but could not do anything to affect Villa’s goals. Emre Can 5 . Asked to play three different roles throughout the game – centre back, right back and left wing  - and he never looked settled. Martin Skrtel 5 . Looked uncomfortable dealing with Benteke all afternoon, and got into a tangle in the second-half by the Belgian’s mere presence. Liverpool keeper Simon Mignolet vents his frustration having conceded twice at Wembley on Sunday . Dejan Lovren 6 . Vital interception in the 16th minute to cut out N’Zogbia’s pass to Benteke and made a super tackle to deny Grealish. Poor to shoot from distance at the end. Lazar Markovic 5 . Pretty ineffectual as the right wing-back and hooked at half-time as Rodgers looked to change matters. Jordan Henderson 5.5 . Not a match where his emergence as Liverpool’s enforcer-in-chief continued. Lost the battle for supremacy with Delph. Liverpool skipper Steven Gerrard attempts to dispossess Aston Villa's Kieran Richardson . Joe Allen 5.5 . A quiet game for the quiet Welshman. Did his usual tidying job in front of defence but little in a positive sense. Alberto Moreno 6 . Overhit a cross in a good position in the first-half, but did well to recover with a sliding tackle to deny Benteke in the second-half. Steven Gerrard 6 . Began in an advanced role but dropped deep once Rodgers shuffled his team. Never really got in the game. His late header was reminiscent of Istanbul, but it was not to be. Brazilian Philippe Coutinho opens the scoring for Liverpool with a smart chipped finish at Wembley . Raheem Sterling 6.5 . Delicate ball to set up Coutinho and fizzed throughout. Caught offside too many times, however. Philippe Coutinho 7 . Super run and finish, even if it needed a nick off Okore to defeat Given. Pressed into good positions early on but influence faded later. Subs: . Balotelli (for Markovic 46’) 6.5 . Had an impact for the second half. Should have been allowed his goal late on. Johnson 5 (for Allen 78’). Lambert (for Moreno 90’) Liverpool forward Raheem Sterling is floored by a challenge from Aston Villa's Fabian Delph (left) Brendan Rodgers 5 . Got his tactics wrong from the off and tried in vain to correct twice as the match progressed. Not a good day for him. Ref: Michael Oliver 6.5 . Allowed the game to flow and got most calls correct. But his linesman failed him for Balotelli’s strike.
Tim Sherwood's side came from behind to beat Liverpool 2-1.
