Kewell: We need to be at our best

Last updated : 13 November 2002 By The Gas Man
Leeds take a slender 1-0 lead into the second round tie in the Artemio Franchi stadium in Florence.

"It wouldn't matter where we play them, it's going to be a hard game," said Kewell.

"They didn't surprise me in the first game. We knew what they were capable of after what they did against Chelsea (in the UEFA Cup) last year, and they gave us a good game.

"They're a very good side, especially going forward. They had two quick strikers and they did put us under pressure at times. It looked like they were always going to score.

"Although we may have a 1-0 lead, it really counts for nothing because they can go out and score in the first five minutes.

"But we will be going out there to get the win. Hopefully we can get an early goal and silence them."
