“La Champions League è una competizione di grande prestigio: incontreremo squadre molto forti e ben organizzate ma come sempre prepareremo ogni gara nel migliore dei modi, studiando ogni dettaglio perché sappiamo che a questi livelli non esistono partite facili e scontate. Siamo l’Inter, affrontiamo questa competizione con entusiasmo, con l’obiettivo di dare continuità al cammino fatto già lo scorso anno.”

Simone Inzaghi

“È sicuramente un girone difficile e complicato, con due squadre come Bayern e Barcellona che sono abituate a giocare questa competizione, ma noi siamo l'Inter. L'anno scorso ci siamo dimostrati all'altezza con il Liverpool. Sicuramente per questi big match dovremo essere al top della forma. La Champions è la competizione dei dettagli, ci sono le squadre migliori, noi ci siamo e ce la giocheremo. Nel 2010 abbiamo affrontato Barcellona e Bayern, ma era tempo fa. Il calcio è cambiato. Queste due squadre sono capaci di metterti in difficoltà. Noi stiamo crescendo, come abbiamo dimostrato la scorsa stagione con il Liverpool. Affrontare queste squadre è un grande stimolo, il Bayern ha una squadra molto consolidata, il Barcellona sta trovando equilibrio e identità. Vogliamo dare continuità al percorso. Non c'è paura, ma rispetto, saremo pronti e preparati.”

Javier Zanetti, Inter Vice President

THE RULES OF THE DRAW

Inter Milan are among the 32 teams that will take part in the Champions League 2022/2023 by virtue of their ranking in last season's Serie A. 26 teams have already qualified for the group stage, while the last six will be confirmed between Tuesday and Wednesday, at the end of the play-offs.

The teams are divided into four pots. Pot 1 comprises the defending champion, the UEFA Europa League winner and the league winner of the six highest ranked nations that has not qualified through one of the 2021/22 titles. Pots 2 to 4 are determined by the club's rankings in their respective leagues.

In the case of federations with two representatives, the teams are paired in such a way that their matches are split between Tuesday and Wednesday. In the case of federations with four representatives, two pairings are made based on television schedules.

No team may face a team from the same federation. Any other restrictions will be announced before the draw.
