Cardiff nets FA Cup semis

[cardifffemale]

Cardiff's Millennium Stadium has been chosen to host this season's FA Cup semi-finals as well as the final.
The first tie takes place on Saturday, 16 April 2005 at 1715 BST and the second game a day later at 1600 BST.

"Taking the semi-finals to Cardiff will ensure they are played at a neutral venue and that the maximum number of fans can attend," said an FA spokesman.

"The Millennium Stadium has been a wonderful venue for the final, with a unique atmosphere for teams and fans."


The stadium has hosted the final since 2001 and is due to continue until the new Wembley Stadium takes over for the 2006 FA Cup final.
