Leeds United take on Chelsea in FA Cup Semi-Final at Wembley
It's been nearly 40 years since Leeds United were last in an FA Cup Semi-Final
For the first time in nearly 40 years, Leeds United are in a FA Cup Semi-Final.
They take on Chelsea at Wembley Stadium at 3pm.
Daniel Farke said at the latest press conference that he trusts his side to deliver a strong performance under Wembley’s iconic arch.
The boss said: “We will not do anything too special for this game and we will prepare like a normal Premier League game.
“I am also quite confident that many Leeds United supporters will be there in order to cheer us on and to support us. For that, we look forward to have a pretty special day.
“We are used to playing teams of this calibre. We stayed unbeaten against top sides during the season against Liverpool and Chelsea themselves. We know if we have a tough day and we deliver in a perfect way, we will always have a chance.
“We are playing this game in a good moment for us. We are in a good shape and also seven games unbeaten in all competitions and for that we travel with respect but not fearful.
“We travel in a good mood and are looking forward to play this game. We will stick to our DNA. We have to be brave, play on the front foot, be good in possession and threaten the opponent’s goal.
