Aston Villa captain Fabian Delph feels Sunday's FA Cup semi-final win over Liverpool can act as motivation for the remainder of the season.

Villa came from behind to beat the Reds 2-1 at Wembley to book their place in the May 30 decider against Arsenal thanks to goals from Christian Benteke and Delph either side of the break after Philippe Coutinho's 30th-minute opener.

Aside from the dangling carrot of the cup final at the end of next month, Villa have five more Premier League fixtures to contest and Delph is expecting the team to focus on them before worrying about winning silverware.

"We're confident we'll come through it. We'll put that aside for today and honestly the next game we've got to think about is one in the Premier League," he told BT Sports 1.

Villa sit 15th on the table with 32 points, four clear of the drop zone, ahead of next weekend's trip to Manchester City.
