“It's always nice to be here; it means that things are going well. It was a great draw; Benfica have already proven that they're well up there with the standard of the competition. There are no easy games in the quarters. Three Italian sides? It's great for Italian football; we're happy to represent the country. We all have a chance and let's hope we can be up there. The 1964/65 final against Benfica? The Grande Inter side was a team that will forever live on in the hearts of Interisti; they beat Benfica and now we need to honour them in the game, which could take us through to the semis.”
