Julio Cesar: Inter Will Eliminate Chelsea By Playing It Safe

The Brazilian has become safety concious ahead of next week's Chelsea clash...

Julio Cesar - Inter (Grazia Neri)
Julio Cesar is hoping to avoid accidents against Chelsea when Inter travel to Stamford Bridge next week.

The Nerazzurri aim to finish the job and reach the Champions League quarter-finals after their 2-1 first leg win. And the keeper is there to ensure chances are not dented following on from his road accident in Milan two weeks ago.

While his handy work on the pitch has been good, it was less so behind the wheel. Nevertheless, he is looking to steer Inter in the right direction against Chelsea, and he is confident they will avoid a tailspin in London.

"I was driving my car and a friend of mine was with me. I revved up so we could here the engine, but I hit a puddle of water and lost control of the car," he told 'Esporte Espectacular', as reported by Il Corriere Dello Sport.

"I have learned plenty from this accident because I understand I risked my life and the life of another person. I could have thrown everything away by doing stupid things.

"A few days ago I was with Lucio, and I asked him to slow down because I was scared of the speed."

A lesson learned is a lesson earned then as he looks forward to leaving Chelsea with the Blues.

"I conceded a strange goal in the first leg, but I will save everything in London, and we will qualify," he concluded.
