Belenguer: Getafe must believe

Getafe are capable of coming back from a two-goal deficit against Sevilla in the second leg of the Copa del Rey semi-final.

Getafe captain David Belenguer is confident his side can still progress to the final. Belenguer was part of the Getafe team that clawed their way back from a 5-2 first-leg deficit at Barcelona by winning the second-leg 4-0 to progress to the next round.

Their first match against Sevilla ended in a 2-0 defeat after Luis Fabiano's looping header and an own goal by Pedro Mario sealed victory for the Andalusians.

"The main thing is to believe it is possible. Technically we're psyched for it. And mentally, on Wednesday we will show whether we are qualified or not. It is no use saying: 'we will go for it' when we go out onto the field. The first minute will tell whether we can do it or not," he said.

"We have to be willing to do everything to help our team to win. 90 per cent of the time in these games teams just fold and give up, we have to be in the other 10 per cent."

Sevilla will be without Alvaro Negredo and Marius Stankevicius who are both suspended for the Wednesday showdown after being sent off over the weekend.
