Chelsea ace Oscar hoping third time lucky at Wembley Sunday

Chelsea midfielder Oscar hopes to break his Wembley duck in Sunday's Capital One Cup final against Tottenham.

He was in the Chelsea team that lost the FA Cup semi-final to Man City in 2013, while he represented his country there in the 2012 Olympic final and in a friendly against England the following year.

"I've played there three times," he confirms to chelseafc.com, "and I want to win there because every time I've played there I haven't won!

"Wembley is like the perfect stadium. The pitch is perfect, the ground is beautiful and the atmosphere is great.

"Everyone is very excited because we all know it's a big game and we have been training every day towards winning this game. We are all very motivated and we really want to have this trophy.

"Personally I want to win every trophy at Chelsea. I won the Europa League and now in this final I can win another one. It's a fantastic opportunity.

"If we win it then it can give us even more confidence for the Premier League and the Champions League. When you win one title you feel great. We will try to do that on Sunday."
