Portsmouth boss Harry Redknapp was a happy man after seeing his side reach the FA Cup final with a 1-0 semi-final success over West Bromwich Albion.
A close-range strike from Nwankwo Kanu early in the second half settled a tense tussle at Wembley, with Redknapp looking to another big day out in May.
He beamed: "This is great, a good day. It makes me look forward to life tomorrow.
"I'm delighted for our fans who must think it is fantastic and it's a lot of credit to my other team, Tony Adams and Joe Jordan on the bench.
"We haven't won the cup yet, but it's great to be in a final. It's amazing when you think back two years to where we were as a club, even five years. Now we are sixth in the league and in a final.
"Europe? I don't give a monkey's about that at the moment. I just want to win the FA Cup.
"Once we had gone in front I felt fairly comfortable because I know it takes something special to beat David James.
"We had chances to get more goals through Milan Baros and then David Nugent later on. They will both score goals eventually."
