The Reds were yesterday drawn against Inter Milan in the last sixteen of the Champions League. Although it's a tough tie former Red Phil Thompson is confident Rafael Benitez's side can do the business.

"I think Liverpool are equipped to beat Inter Milan," said the 1981 European Cup winning captain.

"I was speaking before the draw about Liverpool in the Champions League and how they can beat anybody.

"I remember them going to Juventus a couple of seasons ago for the second leg, and everyone knew it was going to be extremely difficult, but Liverpool won at home and drew in Italy, which was fantastic result.

"That's what this team is capable of and they are well aware of what it takes to succeed in the Champions League and Inter will know they've been in a game."
