"I am pleased with this result but we know we will need to play much better in the final on Sunday. We made some changes in the second half and used the squad. Sao Paolo are a good team and we will need to be at our best on Sunday," said Benitez.
"I am pleased for Peter Crouch to score another two goals and I will always talk positive about him. He creates chances for others as well as scores goals and he is a player who gives a lot to us that maybe other players can't."
