Leicester City boss Brendan Rodgers says his players are determined to grab their Europa Conference League chance.

The Foxes drew 0-0 with PSV in the first-leg of their quarterfinal.

Rodgers said, "To be the first to do anything is always nice, we had that feeling with the FA Cup.

"We're a club unlike PSV, who've qualified for 48 European competitions on the trot. We're very inexperienced, but we'll grow by achieving.

"We're ready to grasp it. The first leg gives us great motivation you can do that. We'll fight and do everything we can to go through. We're used to playing in big games in our domestic league. We've just got to keep the mentality, the positivity, and try and score."

On facing PSV in Eindhoven, he added: "I think there will be a bit more space in the game. PSV sat deeper than they normally would in the first leg.

"But that's good for us, that means we can be more open in our attack. If we stay calm, we know we have players who can score goals."
