Ethan Ampadu says Leeds must rally for survival after Wembley blow | OneFootball

Leeds captain Ethan Ampadu says the focus must switch to securing Premier League safety after Wembley disappointment, with four matches to play.

"Of course. Our aim was to go as far as we can in the FA Cup, take it round by round. Once you are here you want to get into the final. We didn't do that but we have got the Premier League and we want to survive and we have got full confidence that if we play like we have been in the last few weeks that we can achieve that," he told LUTV.

Ampadu helped lead Leeds to their first FA Cup semi-final in 39 years, but Sunday’s tie with Chelsea at Wembley finished 1-0, ending hopes of a final place.

Daniel Farke’s side resume their relegation fight on Friday night against already-relegated Burnley, with Leeds 15th and six points clear of the drop.

"We have to now - we didn't give the fans a day to celebrate today so I think we should all get behind each other as we will and then push for these last four."
