“It’s not going to be an easy game but we’ve the players, we’ve the belief and we’ve the togetherness to do a job on them. Once you get to this stage of the competition, anything can happen.
“We’re more organised than ever. The lads have all been fighting for each other. We want to do this together, so I think we’ve a great chance.
“We feel good, we’ve prepared well and we’re looking forward to it.
