This weekend 's FA Cup action unsurprisingly brought up a number of talking points . Here , Sportsmail 's Graham Poll talks us through the key events from Liverpool 's FA Cup quarter-final draw with Blackburn on Sunday . Andre Marriner was well served by not giving decisions at Anfield , where there were four decent penalty appeals . While one could make a case — certainly technically — for three of the four to be given , I felt Marriner got every one of those decisions right . Liverpool ’ s best chance of a penalty was their first appeal when Adam Lallana went down under pressure from Matt Kilgallon . Liverpool attacker Adam Lallana ( right ) was denied a penalty after tumbling from a challenge by Matt Kilgallon . Lallana ca n't believe it after referee Andre Marriner waves away his protests . While slow-motion replays perhaps indicated that Kilgallon may not have played the ball , he certainly appeared to from all angles at full speed . The other two appeals in the first half were for handball and both were accidental . Blackburn defender Kilgallon ( left ) also made contract with Daniel Sturridge in the box during the second half . Early in the second half , Daniel Sturridge felt Kilgallon ’ s arm make contact so he went to ground , knowing he wasn ’ t going to reach the pass played for him . Once again , Marriner was right to allow play to continue , understanding that not every contact is a foul .
Liverpool drew 0-0 against Blackburn in their FA Cup quarter-final tie at Anfield on Sunday . There were four decent penalty appeals during the game . Referee Andre Marriner got every one of them correct . The two handballs in the first half were accidental and Adam Lallana played the ball despite Matt Kilgallon going down under the challenge . Kilgallon made contact with Sturridge in the box , but Marriner was also right to wave play on as the former knew he was n't going to get the ball .
