Sheffield United's Chris Porter sets sights on Steel City cup derby

Sheffield United's Chris Porter admits that he would love to face city rivals Sheffield Wednesday in the FA Cup.

Sheffield United striker Chris Porter has set his sights on an FA Cup quarter-final meeting with local rivals Sheffield Wednesday following their 3-1 victory over Nottingham Forest.

Porter replaced Jose Baxter with just four minutes of the match remaining, but scored twice to book the Blades' place in the final eight of the competition at the expense of the Reds.

"I was out warming up so I wasn't actually aware who we'd drawn," Porter told reporters. "But obviously it would be good for the city if it was to happen.

"It will be absolutely massive. There were 25,000 here today so I'm sure it will be ram-packed and there will be people trying to get in from all over the place. It will be a great atmosphere because it's huge.

"We played them twice last season and I didn't manage to get on so I've experienced it, but only from the bench. It will be a great experience."

Sheffield United are four-time winners of the FA Cup.
