Chelsea boss Conte: Passion and desire will win FA Cup final

Published on: 26 May 2017

Chelsea boss Antonio Conte says passion more than any tactics will be key to beating Arsenal in the FA Cup final tomorrow.

Conte says all the organisation and ability in the world will count for nothing unless they match up to the Gunners in the game of wills.

The Chelsea boss said: “Tomorrow we will see if we are able to exploit this opportunity in the Arsenal team.

“But in this type of game, this is a final, it is not important to miss one or two players. It is very important to play with the right hunger, will and desire.

“Good organisation is important, but it is not enough. Tomorrow our desire must be more than them."

He added: “For Chelsea it is very important to keep the right concentration. In this aspect we could start as underdogs because we won the league and we celebrated winning it.

“It was right to enjoy the moment, and in the other side we face a team who has lost the chance to play in Champions League.

“They have only this to go for this season. We must retain great focus and desire.

"On this aspect I trust a lot in my players, they have shown this season they can be ready to reach the big target of winning the league.

"Tomorrow will be a tough game for both teams but we are ready to fight."
