Cedric thinks Euro 2016 final will help against Manchester United
Southampton face Manchester United in the EFL Cup final and their defender is confident he can handle the pressure in big games
Cedric Soares hopes his big-match experience from the Euro 2016 final will serve him well when Southampton face Manchester United with the EFL Cup trophy on the line.
The two teams meet at Wembley on Sunday when English football's first major honour of the season is decided.
Defender Cedric played when Portugal caused a major shock against France in the final of last year's international tournament and now hopes to experience similar emotions against United.
"Playing in the Euro 2016 final was very important for me and my career," he told Southampton's website.
