The Reds will be drawn against either Inter Milan, AC Milan, Real Madrid, Barcelona or Seville in next Friday's Champions League draw. Although all are tough ties, the Reds have no-one to fear after their excellent performance on Tuesday says Pepe Reina.

"Now we have a Spanish or Italian team and we know it is going to be very difficult whoever we get, especially with the second game being away from home. But this is a difficult competition, with only the best teams around left in it now. We trust in ourselves because we have been in two finals in the last three seasons and we are one of the favourites," said the Liverpool goalkeeper.

"We know what we are capable of so of course we are confident. In the past in this competition we have beaten Barcelona, Juventus, Chelsea and of course Milan, who are all top, top teams. It will be tough but we are confident in ourselves and what we can do.

"Our victory in Marseille was the best performance I have seen since I have been at this club. That was brilliant in terms of being so complete. We were great going forward, narrow and compact in defence and all round that made it a very easy game.

"This group was so tight that if you weren't at 100% in every game, it was very easy to drop points.

"We have felt the pressure over the last three games, because we knew what was at stake, but we have come through it okay. We knew what we had to do and we've done it."
