It would be my favourite goal if I scored for Liverpool in FA Cup - Kuyt

Dirk Kuyt has scored a lot of goals for Liverpool but suggests that if he scores in this weekend's FA Cup final it will certainly be his favourite.

The Dutchman has a habit of scoring in cup finals for the Reds with a goal in the losing 2007 Champions League decider against AC Milan before hitting the back of the net in the eventual Carling Cup triumph over Cardiff City in February this year.

Ahead of the huge clash with Chelsea at Wembley tomorrow, Kuyt says it would be a very special moment if he was to score in a winning FA Cup final.

"I like all the goals I've scored, but to score in finals is something really special," Kuyt told Liverpool's official website.

"I've played in two finals for Liverpool and scored in both, so hopefully I'll score my best goal ever on Saturday.

"I think it would be my favourite. As a kid I always watched the FA Cup. It's special in England but it's also special all over the world. It's one of the most important cups in the world you can win.

"It'd be a great achievement personally, but also for the club - it would give us an enormous boost to keep us going forward and be contenders."
