JAKARTA - Inter Milan coach Simone Inzaghi asked his team to be wary of Sheriff Tiraspol when the two teams met in the fourth Champions League match, Wednesday night local time.

Quoted by Antara from the club's official website, Wednesday, Inzaghi assessed that his team had been shown how much of a threat the Sheriff could pose when the two teams met a few weeks ago.

The former Lazio coach assessed that the Sheriff could win over Real Madrid and Shakthar Donetsk not because of luck. He asked Inter to focus on this match so as not to be missed.

"We played great football at the San Siro but we also saw the threat the Sheriffs made, they beat Real and Shakthar not by luck," said Inzaghi.

"We have to stay fully focused and maintain our next best form. The sheriffs have already shown how dangerous they can be on the counter-attack."

Inzaghi continued to say, this victory over the Sheriff is crucial because they can extend the Nerazzuri's journey in the Champions League.

He understands that there is an important match against AC Milan at the weekend in the Italian League, but Inzaghi wants his team to focus first on the match against Sherfiff.

"It's crucial. We knew from the start we had to take maximum points from the two meetings with the Sheriff. All our thoughts are on this game.

"We have another important game for the fans and the club next Sunday but at the moment we are not thinking about anything other than the Champions League," said Inzaghi.

Inter Milan will face Sheriff Tiraspol in the fourth match of Group D of the Champions League at the Bolshaya Sportivnaya Arena Stadium, Tiraspol, Moldova, Wednesday night local time.
