Martinez proud to see Wigan into FA Cup semifinals

Wigan Athletic boss Roberto Martinez is proud to have reached the FA Cup semis.

Although Premier League survival is the only target for Martinez, he will pinch himself when he leads his team out at Wembley for the FA Cup semi-final against Millwall next month.

He told The Sun: "This club was in League Two not so long ago - now we've been in the Premier League for eight years and are playing at Wembley.

"It's all a far cry from when I was making my debut in the bottom division at Springfield Park.

"For me as a football dream, it doesn't come any bigger than Wigan Athletic."
