Kelly targets more goals

Liverpool defender Martin Kelly believes that he can add to his goal tally after hitting the back of the net for the first time in his Reds career.

The 21-year-old secured a semi-final spot for Liverpool with a header, courtesy of Craig Bellamy's free kick in their 2-0 win over Chelsea at Stamford Bridge last night.

"I was made up with the goal and it was a long time coming getting my first one for Liverpool," Kelly told the club's official website. "It was a great cross from Craig and I managed to get a free header.

"We were attacking at the end with all the away supporters and it was brilliant seeing all their emotions as they celebrated. It's fantastic to get a goal for such a big club.

"I hope to bring more goals to my game. I used to be a central midfielder when I was younger and I do have that attribute in my locker."

Liverpool will find out their semi-final opponents following the final quarter-final between Manchester United and Crystal Palace.
