Portsmouth striker Kanu is confident his side can cope with being heavy favourites to win the FA Cup Final against Cardiff City on Saturday.

Pompey, who finished eighth in the Premier League, ended the league season with a run of four straight defeats.

But Kanu, who scored the winner in the semi-final against West Brom, is sure they can turn that poor form around.

He told BBC Radio Solent: "It means a lot to the players and the club and we don't want to disappoint anybody."
