Step by step - Fazio

Federico Fazio knows a thing or two about success in the cups - and he was quick to put a lid on talk of Wembley after last night's 4-0 win against Newcastle and subsequent semi-final draw against Sheffield United in the Capital One Cup.

The defender helped Sevilla lift the Europa League last season and earlier in his career, was a member of the Argentina squad that won Olympic gold in Beijing.

FA Cup semi-finalists last season, League One side Blades beat Southampton in Tuesday’s quarter-final.

“The thought of playing at Wembley sounds great but now we need to only think about the semi-finals,” said Federico.

“We need to take it step by step and focus only on Sheffield United.

“They are in the semi-finals because they have a good team and have had a good run in this competition - we know it won’t be easy.

"We must not underestimate them.”

“It was a great result against Newcastle. We are alive in all competitions which is important and good for the team to continue on this path.”
