In a post-match interview with BBC Match of the Day, Gonzalez went on to admit that he had been awaiting an opportunity to start in midfield in place of the injured Rodri, having only made the bench against Burnley in midweek.

âItâs been a really important week, itâs been amazing â three wins and we are alive in the league which was something that maybe one month ago we didnât think we would arrive here with this chance,â Gonzalez said.
âBut itâs amazing to arrive in another final; this is my second season and my second final in the FA Cup and I hope we can win it!â
