Brendan Rodgers calls for Leicester City to create history

:Headline: Brendan Rodgers calls for Leicester City to create history:
Leicester have never won the FA Cup after losing four finals.

Brendan Rodgers has urged Leicester to create history ahead of Saturday’s FA Cup final.

The Foxes face Chelsea at Wembley in their first FA Cup final in 52 years and are yet to win the trophy.

The club has lost their previous four finals, the last coming against Manchester City in 1969, and Rodgers knows the Foxes can leave a legacy.

He said: “We have earned the right to be in the final and we will arrive with an opportunity to make our own history. We feel we’re in with a chance and if we can play to our level we have a great chance.

Cengiz Under has been nursing a hip problem while Harvey Barnes and James Justin (knee) remain out along with Wes Morgan (back).

A crowd of 21,000 will be at Wembley with Chelsea and Leicester allocated 6,250 tickets each as part of the pilot to test the return of big crowds to venues amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Rodgers added: “Just to know in such a special occasion we are going to have people there with our backs and looking after us (is great).

“Wembley is an iconic stadium so for them to watch the team play in a final will be really special for them.”
