Kenwright revels in Everton's Rocky moment

Everton chairman Bill Kenwright had thoughts of Rocky during their FA Cup semifinal against Manchester United.

"There are no words. I know we're doing this for TV and you want words from me but I just can't describe it," Kenwright said the shootout victory.

"I thought with about 10 minutes to go about that wonderful moment when Rocky Balboa grabs hold of Apollo Creed and Apollo says, 'You're not getting no rematch' and Rocky says 'I don't want one.' I thought, can we go through all of this again? But you know what? Not only can we, we will and I'm confident we will beat Chelsea."
