Marco Materazzi said Serie A leaders Inter Milan will not feel stage fright when they face Liverpool at Anfield in the first knockout round of the Champions League next month.
"Anfield can make anyone feel awe-struck, but I don't think our legs will shake. Personally, it's a challenge that brings out the best in me," the former Everton defender told La Gazzetta dello Sport.
