Cesar marches on Manchester
Sunday 22 February, 2009

Inter goalkeeper Julio Cesar is “certain” they will knock Manchester United out of the Champions League.

“I am not worried,” grinned the shot-stopper ahead of Tuesday's first leg meeting at San Siro.

“It will be a game decided by the little details. They are a great squad with several dangerous forwards, but we are aware of our own strength.

“We have no reason to fear anybody. I am certain we will qualify for the next round.”

Yet Julio Cesar needed some spectacular saves to keep hold of Inter's 2-1 win away to Bologna on Saturday afternoon.

“We did well to focus only on Bologna and take home the victory. It was the right attitude, because we must not forget what happened last season when we went 11 points clear.”

The Nerazzurri almost threw the Scudetto away, needing a last-gasp win at Parma to secure the title on the final day of the campaign.

“We were also facing a Bologna side who defended very well and in the final stages, with five or six corners, made us suffer.”
