JAKARTA - Coventry will play against Manchester United at Wembley in the FA Cup semifinals tomorrow Sunday, April 21. Covetry coach Mark Robins asked his team not to be depressed and enjoy the rare opportunity
Robins, who has coached The Sky Blues since 2017, assessed that the match at Wembley could be used as a global stage to introduce Coventry to the world.
"This is a brilliant opportunity for everyone and everyone is happy in this city. There is a global concern for Coventry City, the world will pay attention to us and this is a great opportunity for all players," said Mark Robins as reported by AFP on Saturday.
"We have given fans a special opportunity to come there. Being in the national stadium with Manchester United, nothing bigger than that," said Robins, who played for Manchester United in 1988-1992.
Robins realized that MU was the team that was favorite to advance to the FA Cup final even though Erik ten Hag's troops were often inconsistent.
