Cohen will line up for Nottingham Forest against Swansea City this evening knowing that his side hold the underdog tag as the two sides bid for a place at Wembley on May 30.<\/p>\n
Speaking to the Nottingham Evening Post, Cohen said "From this point on, now it is just a case of who handles the pressure better <\/p>\n
"It was a nearly game on Thursday. We so nearly made the breakthrough.<\/p>\n
"We have not played as well as we would have liked to. We are not going to kid ourselves on that.<\/p>\n
"We are not happy with the result at home. We wanted more than a 0-0 draw. We wanted to take a lead into the second leg.<\/p>\n
"But we are still 90 minutes away from Wembley.<\/p>\n
"Whoever handles the pressure will be the team that gets there.<\/p>\n
"We have to make sure we give a good account of ourselves. If we cope with the pressure to do that, we will get through.<\/p>\n
"It is all about the pressure now. We are 90 minutes away from Wembley and whoever handles the expectation better will win.<\/p>\n
"We are going into the game as underdogs. But form and previous records go out of the window in games like this.<\/p>\n
"We know we have a job to do, we cannot think about the past," he said.<\/p>\n
"Every play-off is different and we are playing against a different team.<\/p>\n
"We just have to counter Swansea and what they do.<\/p>\n
"The gaffer will have been looking at things and the different potential scenarios.<\/p>\n
"They dominated the game there, last time. But we know we can score against them, because we did it twice there.<\/p>\n
"We said in the dressing room that it is still 0-0 and we must remember that," he said.<\/p>\n
"It was easy to be down, when you consider the events of the game, which it felt like we had lost.<\/p>\n
"But now we have another 90 minutes; a one-off game that could take us to Wembley.<\/p>\n
"We have just as much chance as Swansea to get there.<\/p>\n
"They finished higher in the league and they have a great home record – but we still have a great chance.<\/p>\n
"We know we have to give a better account of ourselves, otherwise we will be looking at another play-off defeat.<\/p>\n
"We made a lot of mistakes last time we went down there.<\/p>\n
"But we will look at videos of how they play; at where things went wrong.<\/p>\n
"And, if we do a better job than we did last time, we have a great chance. We can still get through this tie.<\/p>\n
"We came into this with four wins and we did want a lead to take down there," he said.<\/p>\n
"We had a few chances and we might have put them away. It is uncharacteristic of us not to.<\/p>\n
"But they had chances as well, so we can perhaps be happy to be level. Campy had to make a number of good saves."<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
