00:02Leeds United reached their first FA Cup semi-final in decades
00:07but were beaten by a Chelsea team on a new manager bounce
00:11being led by interim coach Callum McFarlane
00:15for the second time this season
00:18after Liam Rossini was sacked by Chelsea.
00:23For Leeds though, attention will now turn back to the Premier League
00:28with a relegation scrap on their hand.
00:30The club in Yorkshire are in pole position
00:33when it comes to the race for survival in the Premier League
00:38at the bottom of the table
00:39but teams around them have picked up points during the weekend
00:44while the Whites were at Wembley playing Chelsea.
00:48The club sits a few points clear of relegation and have a game in hand.
00:54Here's what Daniel Farker said about the Whites' Premier League running.
01:01Daniel, four games left in the Premier League, how do you pick your players up after this?
01:05What was the message to them at full time?
01:07Yes, we don't dwell under this law so we had nothing to lose today, just a lot to win
01:14and we are disappointed that we didn't win this game and once it doesn't settle, everyone knows
01:18that we gave our support and our club so much to be proud of
01:22and gave them the best one since four decades.
01:25So it's a testament of how well the players have done.
01:29Right now from tomorrow onwards, morning onwards, we just concentrate on our bread and butter business
01:33and this is to earn survival on the Premier League level.
01:37Not often this has happened for a newly born side in the recent years.
01:40We have a good chance, 40 points already with four points to play
01:43and right now, like so far during the whole season, we concentrate on each and every game
01:48to win as many points as possible and if we do so then we have also a great chance
01:52to achieve our main goal and this is to stay up.
01:56Yes, overall that we have also the mentality and the difficult periods and crunch time periods
02:03to be very clinical and to win many games otherwise you don't take part in the semi-final, also
02:09the quality because we have difficult fixtures as well, great character because we also rotated
02:15a lot, also that we need to use the whole team, so many, many positive things to take out
02:20of it, also perhaps to learn out of this game and once it's another big game, hopefully not,
02:24we don't have to wait again 40 years till we achieve this again once this opportunity
02:30comes around and then to be a bit less nervous and a bit it's more business as usual, to
02:35be then more natural in your strength but even then it's no guarantee because there's
02:41also an opponent on the other side who tries to go through and of course Chelsea is still
02:46in such a game, a bit the favourite.
02:48Today was not to be and of course we are disappointed today and suffer a little bit today but from
02:54tomorrow and we can be very proud of this one, yes.
