Zanetti believes in Inter

Inter captain Javier Zanetti is confident that his side can be protagonists in the Champions League this season.

The Argentine made the up-beat claim after last night’s 0-0 draw against reigning European champions Barcelona.

Although the versatile veteran concedes that they’ll have to improve, he’s confident that they are on the right path to potential glory.

“I’m sure that we’ll be protagonists,” stated the South American. “We will have to get better, but the squad is convinced that we can do it.”


Barcelona arguably had the better of the game at San Siro, but Zanetti insists that the side’s organisation bodes well.

“We took on the best team in the world who treat the ball well,” he continued. “We did well to close down space and counter-attack.

“This is a point of departure for us and we hope to win the next game.”

Zanetti came up against former teammate Zlatan Ibrahimovic last night.

“We said hello to each other before the game, but after the match it is only right that everyone thinks about their own team.”[football-italia.net]
