Soccer: Wenger targets Leeds and sets his sights on making FA Cup history

ARSENAL boss Arsene Wenger has set his sights on making history by reaching a fourth successive FA Cup final even though he admitted the competition is still third on his list of priorities this season.

Wenger’s side were last beaten in the FA Cup at any stage other than the final back in 2000 against Leicester in the fourth round. Since then, they have lost to Liverpool in the 2001 final, before defeating first Chelsea and then Southampton in Cardiff’s Millennium Stadium.

Wenger is expecting a tough challenge at Leeds, but would take great pride in becoming the first side to reach four consecutive finals and in matching the feat of Blackburn and Wanderers in the 19th century in winning the cup three times on the trot.
