Manchester United confirmed their place in the Carabao Cup final with a 2-0 over Nottingham Forest at Old Trafford.
The Red Devils won the first leg at the City Ground 3-0.
Second half goals from Anthony Martial and Fred handed Manchester United q deserved victory.
The Red Devils booked a domestic final place for the first time since 2018 as they aim to end a six-year trophy drought.
Ten Hag has urged his players to complete the job by beating Newcastle United in the final on February 26.
“It’s great but you play finals to win. It is not an achievement to come into a final,” he told BBC.
“We want to win them but first we have other things to do. We come back to the Premier League and bury this cup.
“It is good to reach the final but it is not about reaching the final, it is about winning it.
“Now the focus is on the Premier League, in two days it will continue. It has to give the motivation in the first place, we want to bring that cup to the fans.
“But in this moment I’m not looking ahead, we’re focusing on other things, a big week is coming up, we have Crystal Palace and then two games against Leeds and they are going to be great games, derby games that we are looking forward to.”
Jadon Sancho made his first Manchester United appearance since October when he came on as a second half substitute.
