Oldham's Cisak eagerly anticipating Liverpool FA Cup meeting

Oldham Athletic goalkeeper Alex Cisak cannot wait to take on Premier League giants Liverpool in the FA Cup this weekend.

The 22-year old Australian youth international and his Latics teammates are preparing to face the Reds at Anfield in the third round of the competition on Friday night and he admits it is an exciting test for the League One club.

"It's a childhood dream of mine," he told au.fourfourtwo.com.

"It's what you play football for. It'll be an amazing experience.

"The whole team is buzzing and when you play at Anfield, everyone's going to be running on high emotions.

"Everyone expects us to be under-dogs against Liverpool but I think we stand a good chance of going through to the next round," added Cisak.

"I can't see why we can't look for a result. We try to play football. Some teams in our league try to play direct but we're one of the teams who try play out and get on the ball and try play some attractive football.

"And on a good pitch like Anfield, you can play that type of football."
