Robert Mancini Admits a Tough Match against Liverpool in Champions League

Liverpool is going to travel San Siro to take on Inter Milan in the second leg of last 16 round match of Champions League. Inter Milan has to overturn 2-0 deficit to see Liverpool from this round. However, it would not be that much easy for Inter as Liverpool has come back to the right track in premier league with projecting four consecutive victories. Liverpool thrashed Newcastle United 3-0 recently and after that it is almost sure that Inter Milan would have to have everything on the right track in the match.

Inter Milan Coach Robert Mancini thinks that Inter must have a special night on the day to confirm a place in the next round. He admitted that it would be a tough game for them as they would have to come from behind and he also added that his side was not in excellent condition. He will miss some of their key players, while he could not confirm Hernan Crespo to be available for the match as he is still recovering from injury. However, Mancini has already prepared for disappointment.

Soccernet.espn reported:

'It is going to have to be one of those nights when everything goes well,'' he said.

'We have to play the game with our head and not allow them to settle, then the fans can try to give us a hand.''

'Liverpool have been able to get lots of players fit, but we have not.

'We are not in an excellent condition overall. Tuesday has got to be a special evening.''

Liverpool has two goals advantage ahead of the match and if they go on with their present form then they are most likely to get into the next round. Inter Milan has to play exceptionally well to outperform Liverpool. However, it is almost sure that fans are going to have a competitive match at San Siro this week.
