Bradford City FA Cup hero Mark Yeates has told ESPN FC his side's famous fourth-round win at Chelsea on Saturday was both "surreal and amazing."
Yeates, 30, came off the bench to net Bradford's final goal in a 4-2 victory that ended the Blues' hopes of achieving a quadruple this season.
With the League One side having recovered after falling 2-0 behind, the result has been hailed by some as the most remarkable in the competition's history.
"It was as we came back to the train station on Saturday night in London, and I saw all the newspapers with my picture on the back, that our achievement hit home," Yeates told ESPN FC in an exclusive interview.
"What a day for everyone associated with Bradford, and I'm so happy to have played my part in the story.
"So many aspects of the day were just amazing, and one of the great memories all the Bradford lads will take with them was the sight of Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho coming into our dressing room, shaking all our hands and applauding us.
"It was a surreal sight for all of us, but you have to hand it to him. He was a class act on the day, and everyone at Chelsea handled the situation so well.
"We can look forward to the next round of the FA Cup now, and hopefully the publicity will bring the club a few quid and we can do everything we can to get out of League One this season.
"Bradford are a club that should be in the Championship at the very least, and we have to try and get there now."
Yeates, who has played for a host of clubs in a career that started at Tottenham a decade ago, believes the outcome on Saturday ranks as one of the modern game's biggest shocks.
"If we had beaten them 1-0 at our place, with a dodgy pitch and a few decisions going our way, people would have said it was our lucky day -- but it wasn't like that at all," he said.
"Anyone who saw that game would confirm that this was not just a lucky victory as we were right in the match from start to finish. To score four goals against one of the best sides in Europe at their home stadium is something we can all feel very proud about.
"I have heard people saying it is the biggest FA Cup upset of all time, and it has to be right in there for that title because the game looked to be over when they went 2-0 up.
"Who comes from that position to beat Mourinho's Chelsea at Stamford Bridge? No-one. No-one except Bradford, clearly!"
Yeates said he wanted to get some canvas prints of photos of the scenes that followed his goal on Saturday, and suggested fate played a part in ensuring that the club's moment of glory came in front of their travelling supporters.
"The fact that three of our goals flew in at the end of the ground where the 6,000 Bradford fans were going mad made the occasion all the more memorable," he said.
"I was sent a few photos of the moment when all the players and staff are celebrating behind me as I'm on my knees after scoring the goal, and they are images I will cherish. It was an incredible day, and hopefully it's not the last special memory for Bradford in the FA Cup this season."
