• ‘I haven’t thought about that for a long time’, says Lampard
• Manager says Derby will be underdogs in final against Villa
Frank Lampard praised his Derby players after securing a place in the Championship play-off final as his side gained revenge for “Spygate” in mid-season in the best possible way.
“We weren’t crying over the spying incident, I haven’t thought about that in a long time,” the Derby manager said after beating Leeds for the first time in four attempts this season to set up a Wembley meeting with Aston Villa on 27 May.
