GERRARD JOINS CARRA IN TEAM OF FA CUP
Liverpool skipper Steven Gerrard has scored a psychological victory over Chelsea captain John Terry ahead of their eagerly awaited FA Cup semi-final after winning The FA Cup Player of the Round award.
Gerrard and Terry were among four Premiership players nominated for the award, run in partnership with UMBRO, after their outstanding sixth round performances. West Ham United's Dean Ashton and Middlesbrough's Ugo Ehiogu were also in the running for the award.
The Liverpool skipper has also made FA Cup history with team-mate Jamie Carragher. It is the first time that two players from the same club have won the Player of the Round award in successive rounds.
The Liverpool skipper was an outright winner, polling over 65 per cent of the 34,918 votes cast on TheFA.com. Dean Ashton attracted 20 per cent of the vote, with John Terry trailing on ten per cent and Ugo Ehiogu on three per cent.
He will be presented with an engraved silver salver and also wins £1000 worth of UMBRO football kit for a local school, club or organisation of his choice. VIP attendance at The 125th FA Cup final is also guaranteed.
Gerrard is the ninth player and the third from the Premiership to join The FA's Team of The FA Cup this season.
The Team of The FA Cup comprises Player of the Round winners from the First Qualifying Round to the Semi Final. This season's team already features Gosport Boroughs Jamie Laidlaw, Northwich Victoria's Paul Brayson (who has won the award twice this season), Leamington's Alex Rodman, Eastbourne Borough's Stuart Tuck, Doncaster Rovers' Dave Mulligan, Nuneaton Borough's Gez Murphy, Bolton's Ricardo Gardner and Liverpool team-mate Jamie Carragher.
Players were nominated by a team of panellists including Radio 5 Live's Mark Clemmit, The Daily Telegraph's Ricky George, Sky Sports' Soccer Saturday anchorman Jeff Stelling and David Watters, news editor of The Non League Paper. |
