Big Game Garcia on cloud nine

Last updated : 26 April 2006 By Adam Bryant
The Spaniard has a knack of scoring amazing goals on the big occasions, despite many frustrating performances this season.

"I love being the man for the big occasion," he said." I'm very lucky. I've been selected in our biggest matches and a lot of the chances have fallen to me.

"When you score an important goal in a big game, you feel you can do it every time. It's always a good feeling to score such a good goal.

"I feel a lot of confidence to try things and happily it worked for us. That was one of the best goals I've ever scored. It felt particularly good to score on Saturday because I was thinking of the couple of chances I'd missed before then.

"Chelsea was a big game, but when we play in the final it will be even more massive for the players and supporters.

"We have now given ourselves a big opportunity to win a trophy, which is the target at the start of every season."
