Benitez to focus on the game

"Yes, it is a big and important game for us but it is 90 minutes of football and we are not thinking about anything else," he said. "We can talk about the money afterwards.

"It is a 90 minute football game and we need to play as well as possible to win it. It is an important game for the club, the supporters and our future but we must look at it as a game, not life itself.

"If we go into the game thinking it is our last chance then we are putting too much pressure on ourselves.

"Whether it is Charlton or West Brom at home or Olympiacos in the Champions League we must go into the game with the same mentality. We want to keep a clean sheet and to score, but we must also control the game."
