Benfica alongside Manchester United are the bookies choice to top the UEFA Champions League group but Ezequiel Garay claims that the likes of Otelul Galati and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Basel-c39079 cannot be ruled out, as they can prove to be tricky opponents.
Speaking to reporters, the former Real Madrid man said that although the match is going to be a fiddly affair, the Reds do possess the quality to oust any rivals and they will be looking to do the same against Otelul.
"The game will be tricky because it's away from home, but we have a great team and we enter to win every game and at all stages.”

"We know we can do great things in this race,” http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ezequiel-Garay-c13071 was quoted as saying.
