UCL Knock Out Stage Draw

Man United Could Face Real Madrid



Now it’s time for more heart beating time, time for the UCL knockout stage. The draw will be conducted at FIFA place in Switzerland. However this time there will be no live telecast, but it can be watched online at UEFA.com anywhere in the world. Starting at 10:30 a.m. in the U.K. and 11:30 a.m. local time in Switzerland. So for Malaysia viewers it should be about  6.30 pm today.

So this time , only two English club managed to go through. With AC Milan and Real Madrid as the runner ups, both could be the potential opponents for Man United. AC Milan is having no so good season at Serie A same to Real Madrid, however the Spanish giant still a formidable team. They could halt Man United progress. Furthermore UCL is a different ball game with Real Madrid chance to qualify next season UCL automatically now depend if they could win this cup.

After been ruled out games against Arsenal and Galatasaray, others potential games were against Porto, Shakhtar Donetsk, Valencia and Celtic. All are very good teams but Man United should be the favourite to advance if Man United were to meet them.

I hope Bayern will meet Real Madrid and that would be something.
