"I enjoyed that. Great credit to my goalkeeper coach because we work hard. It was difficult," Samba told Sky Sports after the match.
"I am happy to have the chance to go to Wembley. To be fair we were surprised a little bit because the way they were in the second half it was a bit crazy for them because they outnumbered everyone. It was tough and so we were prepared for that, the gaffer told us you need to be ready for any situation.
"I am so happy tonight, I can't talk, sorry! This club deserves that, it is not finished and we have one more step. We are happy and enjoying tonight but we switch on for May 29."
