Reds not practising penalties

If the game with AC Milan is all square after extra-time it will be decided on penalties but Rafa Benitez believes that practising for a penalty shoot-out is a pointless exercise.

"I don't believe in practising penalties," he said. "In my opinion, the most important factor is how you feel on the day, not if you look good taking a penalty in training.
 
"You can look the best in practise, but then when you're in front of all the people inside the stadium, you may get afraid.
 
"I don't go into a game like this thinking it's going to go to penalties. I only think about winning the match. Maybe if we get to extra time, then I'll consider who takes penalties."
