Tottenham winger Gareth Bale is savouring the prospect of playing Chelsea in the FA Cup semi-finals following his side's 3-1 win over Bolton tonight.

Tottenham Hotspur winger Gareth Bale has expressed his anticipation ahead of playing Chelsea in the FA Cup semi-final following his side's 3-1 win over Bolton Wanderers in their last-eight match tonight.

Goals from Ryan Nelson, Louis Saha and Bale himself gave Spurs the win in a match overshadowed by the memories of Fabrice Muamba's cardiac arrest last time the two teams met.

However, Bale is looking forward to taking on the challenge that he believes Chelsea will pose.

"We've got difficult opposition with Chelsea but we'll give it a good go," the Welshman told ESPN.

"We probably deserved to win on that day, we had the best chances but we were unable to take them.

"We'll give it our best shot."

Chelsea and Tottenham met in the Premier League just last weekend, resulting in a 0-0 draw.
