Diego Forlan excited by Champions League

Inter Milan striker Diego Forlan has admitted that he can't wait to experience Champions League football again.

The Uruguayan is expected to start tomorrow's tie with French club Marseille following a spell away from the competition with Atletico Madrid.

"I was missing playing Champions League football. This competition is the most important in the world and I'm looking forward to playing in it again. Now I can and we are already in the last 16," Forlan told the official UEFA website.

"There are a lot of strong teams with outstanding players. You just need to take it match by match and avoid setting expectations too high.

"We have to focus on the tie with Marseille, get past them, and then we will see."

Forlan has scored one league goal for Inter this season.
