Alex Ferguson : Fergie ready to battle Inter for Champions League title

Manchester United coach Alex Ferguson continues to see his side as the favourites to lift the Champions League title, in spite of Inter Milan posing a major threat to that dream.

The Old Trafford boss meets his old foe Jose Mourinho as Inter host the reigning champions in a mouthwatering first-leg clash tomorrow.

Fergie said: “We are one of the favourites. A very difficult match awaits us. One of the keys will be our ability to control them. If we go through, we can go far. Inter are very South American with the technique and mentality of Argentina and with some very good Brazilians.

Tomorrow’s game in the San Siro is a huge test for United and Fergie, who has an appalling record against the Special One.

In 12 games versus Mourinho bossing Porto and Chelsea, Fergie has won just once and lost six.

But this time he is sure his all-conquering Red Devils can do the business against the likes of Adriano and Zlatan Ibrahimovic. (ANI)
