An FA Cup final appearance is a dream come true for Hull City's Ahmed Elmohamady, the right winger said on Tuesday.
Elmohamady will become the first Egyptian to play in the FA Cup final after Hull defeated Sheffield United 5-3 in a thrilling semi-final on Sunday. .
"I am the first player from Egypt to play in a semi-final at Wembley and now to have the chance to play in the FA Cup final, that's a dream," Elmohamady was quoted as saying by Hull Daily Mail.
"I am proud of that and I am proud to play with these players and for this club. Everyone back home was watching the game.
"My family and friends will be watching the final, but at Wembley in an FA Cup final everyone around the world will be watching.
"I am proud of that. It's a huge game and a magnificent occasion."
Elmohamady admitted to the difficulty of his side's mission against Arsenal in the final but he insists that Hull are capable of springing an upset.
"Wigan showed against Arsenal what can happen, that's football and anything can happen," the former ENPPI man said.
"We will first concentrate on the league because that is important for us, but then when the final comes for the week it will have all our focus because we really want to win and want to play in Europe.
"That would be fantastic for us. We all know how big this game is for the club. To be at Wembley for the second time this season is great.
"In our first year after being promoted to be playing Arsenal at Wembley in the cup final is fantastic and to have a chance of taking this team into Europe.
"We have a great chance to make huge history and to make sure this is a huge season for us," he added.
