Jens Berthel Askou is relishing his first taste of FA Cup football against Paulton this weekend.

Paul Lambert's side will have to tackle the Southern League minnows at their 2,500 capacity Winterfield Road ground in a televised first-round clash.

The Canaries' 27-year-old Danish defender told The Pink'un: "The FA Cup is huge, not just in Denmark but all over the world.

"This will hopefully be my first game in the competition and it's something I have really been looking forward to. Where else can you can play the lowest ranked team left in the competition as we are doing and then a game or two later you can play Man United?

"That is what is charming about this competition - it can give you some fantastic experiences.

"British football is very big back home so I grew up watching the FA Cup. It's huge for me."
