Cúper Excited About Beating Milan

Héctor Cúper is relishing the chance to test his Real Betis side against AC Milan in the Spanish outfit's centenary celebration game on Thursday.

The former Inter boss would enjoy defeating last season's Champions League winners at the Ruiz de Lopera to give his side a lift before the start of the new campaign.

After two years of struggle, Betis are desperate for some success and Cúper believes that victory over Milan would kickstart his spell in charge.

"Beating Milan would bring huge prestige to the club," he said.

"We are excited by the prospect and ready to go out and take on the current European champions, who have so many great players.

"They have Kaká and so many Italian internationals, who are the reigning world champions.

"It is will be great for the fans and they deserve to see us win.

Betis supremo, Manuel Ruiz de Lopera, negotiated Milan's appearance to mark his club's centenary during the negotiations that saw Rivardo Oliveira and Johann Vogel switch betwee the two sides last summer.

So determined was Lopera that the Italians would play, that he even included a €2.5m penalty should they fail to travel, while Milan are also due to pay for all their own expenses on the trip.
