Inter Milan Treble winner Goran Pandev: Man City can be beaten

Inter Milan Treble winner Goran Pandev insists they're capable of upsetting Manchester City in the Champions League final.

Inter meet City in Istanbul on Saturday rated as underdogs.

Pandev said: "On paper, Manchester City seem favourites, but Inter have the weapons to put City in trouble and I am absolutely convinced they will.

"Let's not be misled by the Citizens' 4-0 defeat of Real Madrid, because this is a dry final on neutral ground. The English, like us at the time, are playing for the Treble: for this they were built, but for this very reason they may have more pressure than expected.

"The trouble is that with City it's not you who gets behind you, they're the ones who throw you behind. Even in Madrid, Bayern tried to do it with us, but their plan soon failed. What Inter must do first of all is to get to the final in top condition, because being physically fit in this kind of match makes the difference!"
