Swansea City manager Roberto Martinez has backed his side to recover from a 1-0 defeat at home to MK Dons in the first leg of their Johnstone's Paint Trophy Southern Area final.
Jemal Johnson's strike left the Swans with a tough task in the return leg against the League Two leaders, but Martinez feels his side can still recover from a one-goal deficit.
He said: "It was frustrating to lose, but we still have everything to play for. We should have scored in the first half but couldn't take our chances.
"I still think we have a great chance of reaching the final. There's a long way to go. It's still half-time in this tie and we must keep that mind.
"We want to get to Wembley as it would be a great day out for the players, supporters and everyone at the club.
"We have to make it possible next week in the second leg."
