Liverpool's last FA Cup win was the Michael Owen inspired 2-1 win over Arsenal in 2001. John Arne Riise joined the Reds a couple of months after that game so this will be his first FA Cup final and the Norwegian international is looking forward to it.
"It's going to be a great occasion and I can't wait for it because I've never played in this Cup final," he said.
"We had to come through a hard game to get there though because Chelsea were awesome in the last 25 minutes and we really had to defend well to keep the result.
"The first half was played at such a high tempo that I was breathing heavily towards the end of it. I'm just so pleased we've come away with the right result. It was an awesome game between two class teams and we're now looking forward to the final."
