Petrov: Villa created enough chances to win Cup semi

Aston Villa captain Stiliyan Petrov says they created enough chances to win their FA Cup semifinal against Chelsea.

In the end, Chelsea blew away Villa with three second-half goals.

Petrov said: "It is not the best feeling at the moment but it's football. We are very disappointed. There were a lot of heads down after the game because we felt we deserved more from the game and we got nothing.

"Decisions didn't go our way. At the end of the day, that's football and we need to blame ourselves.

"You have to score goals to win games. We didn't manage to do that, they scored three and went through.

"What can we learn? When you get chances, you need to take them because teams like Chelsea, when they get even half a chance, they take them."
