Joe Ledley admits Cardiff's FA Cup final with Portsmouth will mean that extra bit more to him after watching the Bluebirds as a youngster.The Fairwater-born midfielder booked City's spot in the final with a spectacular winner against Championship rivals Barnsley in the semi-finals.

And being a lifelong City fan, Ledley admits playing at England's showpiece stadium for a second time will probably mean more to him than his team-mates.

He told the South Wales Echo: "It still hasn't hit me yet because there are a few days until the game itself.

"But it's quite a shock to think where we are and what we have done. We are in the FA Cup final which is a massive game and a huge competition.

"It probably means more to me than most of the guys at the club because I know exactly what it means to the club and the fans. I know how they are feeling because I have followed Cardiff all my life."
