Champions league

What a Joke...
Ac Milan Vs Barcelona already played twice this champions league season.
I will support Benfica with all my energy.
I am very very dissapointed......

Ac Milan Vs Barcelona already played twice this champions league season.

Hopefully, Milan will win at home this time...

So, that they can play Chelsea...

Nice of FIFA to arrange for both Spanish teams to miss each other!

I think you are underestimating Benfica which has much more international expierence of Napoli. Chelsea had qualified for the quarter because of several factors which came all togheter last wednesday. AVB, Drogba, Terry, stamford bridge, 30 minutes extra @ home ( one of the biggest unfair rule) and an overall expierence of the players...

I apologise to correct you but it was the Uefa and in my opinion is fair that the 2 best teams have a shot of playing the final

Final:

Real Madrid vs. Chelsea

The only teams with 100% home record are

Real Madrid (smallest goal difference +3) Goals 17-3
Chelsea (+2) 14-1
Bayern Munich (+1) 15-3

So, Chelsea only conceded one goal...in over 6.5 hours against spanish, german, italian and belgian teams.
Don't under-estimate Chelsea at home.

And he's not he only one, look to Drogba:

I just love this kind of things, I'm really keen into psichology. I think it gives an extra push to the outsider.

Before Sporting - Man City started, Dzeko told the press that he didn't know any player from Sporting, what amazed everyone as Bosnia had been humiliated recently by Portugal and errrr there were two Sporting players in the squad. Sporting's manager was brilliant capitalizing this as morale boost. Imho Sporting was really lucky getting through (curiously luckier at home I would say! I made a loss in that game opposing them after the 1-0) but this extra boost might have been decisive.

Sometimes having an arrogant disrespectful atitude can make your opponent tremble, but most of the times it will only make it harder to beat him.

Difference here is that two Chelsea players used to play for Benfica.

Well, Drogba never had a chance to get in touch with them did he?

David Luiz is still a beloved player here and I think he'll always will.

Can't believe there hasn't been a goal yet in the Milan vs Barca match.

I know Milan missed two sitters.

should have been a penalty... barca tight play passing is incredible.

[herbie]

both teams have had two 0-0's in their domestic leagues so far this season.... I wonder...

The ref got it right, the player never had control of the ball.

10 out of 10 for artistic interpretation ... of a football match.

0 out of 10 for accuracy on target.
