Liverpool fullback Robertson: Inter Milan will be incredibly tough

Liverpool fullback Andrew Robertson says the players are looking forward to their Champions League trip to Inter Milan.

Liverpool meet Inter at San Siro stadium in the first-leg of the round of 16 tie on Wednesday.

Robertson told the club's website: "Yeah, obviously the group stages to the last 16 is the biggest wait for the Champions League. Once the draw gets done you get excited about it and you look forward to that challenge ahead.

"It's going to be incredibly tough. Inter are going really well in Serie A, up fighting at the top and we'll try to keep pushing on all fronts. We've got a tough game away first and we need to be at our best and do what we've been doing over the last six to eight weeks.

"If we do that, I believe we can get a positive result. But we look forward to it – an iconic stadium, an amazing stadium, I'm sure the crowd will be fantastic and we'll bring a big away support. We are really looking forward to it."
