Inter defender Federico Dimarco said that he was present at the San Siro when Inter and AC Milan last met in the Champions League almost 20 years ago.
"It's always a pleasure to play in a derby, I've played in many and I want to enjoy it 100 per cent again. We knew we had a tough group, but we showed what we are worth. We deserve to be here. We know this team well, we know that we will still be up against the reigning Italian champions. It will be a good match.
I would not talk about revenge, a lot of time has passed, and let's think about the present. I was at the San Siro back then. I have not very positive memories of that match. But to think that I was at the match twenty years ago, and today I have the opportunity to play against AC Milan is an incredible feeling," Dimarco was quoted as saying by the UEFA official website.
It will be recalled that in the 2003 Champions League campaign, Milan defeated Inter in the semi-final match (1-1) due to an away goal.
