Duel between Barca and Atletico fratricide. Wolfsburg, easy for Real Madrid

Nerves in the room draw in Nyon, UEFA headquarters. The story is repeated every year, but the tension is unavoidable. Ramon Calderon, manager of Real Madrid history, knew what it was. Raimundo Saporta I lived in basketball. Yes, history repeats itself since 1955, when he began the most wonderful invention by L'Equipe, a French journalist visionary, and Santiago Bernabeu, who said yes as he was offered the idea of creating a European Cup . In its staff were Gento and Di Stefano. He saw the future. That now relived in every draw. The today is tricky.

Great as Real Madrid and Manchester City this season are played. Bayern and PSG also need to show off in Europe, because they dominate their leagues regularly. Barcelona feels the pressure of being the favorite. Atletico plays the quarterfinals without more pressure than Simeone imposes his men. It is his philosophy to free the staff of external pressure. Wolfsburg and Benfica feel the illusion of those who have nothing to lose.

Infantino was lacking, now president of FIFA.There was bald to take out the balls . Pedro Pinto, director of communication UEFA made ​​presentations in Nyon before the eight ball provoke ecstasy, anger, joy, everything was going through neighborhoods, from Madrid to Barcelona via Lisbon, Munich, Manchester and Paris .

"Start the show," Pinto said to make way for Giorgio Marchetti, head of UEFA competition. Gianluca Zambrotta, historic former player of the Champions League , went on to become the first guilty of hype. The Italian took the ball Wolfsburg and seven others wanted to be his rival. He touched the Real Madrid, with the luck of playing the second leg at home.Games will be held on April 6 at the home of Wolfsburg and 12 at the Bernabeu.

The next round was the Bayern-Benfica, which will also be played on 6 and 12 April.

Following the Barcelona-Atletico Madrid emerged. The story of suspicion was repeated.Another duel between Spaniards, as happened in the previous two years when there were three Spaniards at stake in the quarterfinals. The match between Barca and Atletico occurred already in 2014, when Madrid eliminated them and reached the final. And last year, hot or cold balls joined Real Madrid and Atletico. Doubt has again become reality. Barca and Atletico will be measured on 5 (Camp Nou) and April 13 (Calderon).

The fourth round, PSG and Manchester City, was obscured before the bombing of the Spanish duel. But French and English seeking their first historic qualification for the semifinals. It also played on 5 and 13 April.

Real Madrid was pleased by the result of hype. With respect to the German enemy, was a favourite . The challenge was to avoid large, especially Barcelona, ​​Atletico and Bayern, and that happened.

Nothing pleased were the Barcelona and Atletico. Spanish did not want a confrontation and came into the contest. The confrontation of two seasons ago is repeated when the Catalans overcame Athletic. " For three consecutive years in the quarterfinals and luck has said that we have to fight to Barcelona and enter semifinals" , Clemente, Athletic spokesman said from Nyon.

Bayern was also happy. After being removed 89 minutes of the second round played, until Muller forced overtime, now it will be the Benfica desired another opponent by seven teams. The PSG-City put a new semifinalist for the first time in history.

The toughest opponent for Barcelona

You have been hit the hardest and most difficult team, our perfect nemesis, the coach who best knows us weaknesses and knows a more accurate way to abuse them.

Barcelona is the favorite to win the tie and a friend of mine, who attended training this morning Atletico , told me that on the news, among the players has been silence.

But if a team can embarrass the genius of Messi and machinery Luis Enrique, that's Atletico Madrid , with its pressure and how they fall back, his mental and physical strength, with their hard work in all areas of the field, how hard it is to stick a goal and with how little you need to marcarte one.

I did not want to Madrid or painting, or think Pep is finished ahead of Bayern. But Cholo Simeone suffer against more than against anyone, and this tie can not be taken for sentenced until the last minute is not depleted.

Barca have talent and resources to reach the last four, but will have to refine the millimeter and can afford very few mistakes. It would be appreciated, not only for the interests of Barcelona, ​​but in general football , referees appoint UEFA for two games apply carefully the regulations in order to prevent the very tough game and often violent Atletico Madrid injures the great geniuses of this magnificent sport.

Unglued kicks, can and must be able to play football. But without geniuses, football, like everything in life , becomes vulgar and without any importance.

Arsenal fans also deride a beggar with disabilities in Barcelona

Hundreds of English fans who were present in the Barcelona-Arsenal match misted, like days before the PSV fans, the image of football. The image of the day has again demonstrated the rudeness of many of these "hooligans" .

As was seen in Madrid for Dutch fans of PSV Eindhoven taunting of a Romanian indigents in the Plaza Mayor, yesterday fujeron fans "gunners" who followed with what appears to be an embarrassing "fashion" among radical supporters of some European clubs. Several of these "hooligans" drunk, they have returned to humiliate a beggar with physical disabilities who was asking on the terraces where they "warmed engines" based beers.

For his part, director of PSV Eindhoven, Toon Gerbrands , disassociated Wednesday "totally" the club of "unpleasant" incidents that starred in Madrid Dutch fans when they taunted and humiliated a group of Romanian destitute women, and said it will take appropriate measures.

In a brief statement posted on the website of PSV, Gerbrands stressed that the attitude of these fans "do not correspond with the values" that promotes the Dutch club .

The manager said that the PSV "make every effort" to identify these people and when you find them , "will have a big problem." "PSV will take appropriate measures", among which may include 'the prohibition of access "to the stadium" or tougher sanctions , "he stressed. "I would like to state that we want nothing to do with these people. Not belong to our club as home, "Gerbrands said.

Supporters PSV laugh at beggars throwing coins

A group of fans of PSV Eindhoven wanted to laugh and humiliate a group of beggars while waiting time match between his team with Atletico Madrid in the knockout stages of the Champions League.

This group of Dutch fans, a small part of the 2,700 who have traveled to the capital, has concentrated on the Plaza Mayor of Madrid . There, they have found no better way of "fun" than throwing coins at several Roma women who were begging. Each coin toss was cheered by other fans shamefully, until the intervention of an anonymous gentleman rebuking finished with the lamentable spectacle.

Lisbon trembles before the arrival of Bayern

Bayern Guardiola again crossed with a Portuguese enemy in the quarterfinals of Champions . If last year had to face against Porto in Lopetegui , now they will face Benfica. The historic champion of Europe (against Barcelona in 1961 and against Real Madrid the following year) is today far from that squad led by the great Eusebio , and fear has already been installed at the Estadio da Luz before the spectacular moment form of German giant with Lewandowski, Thiago, Coman , Ribéry , Vidal , Lahm , et cetera. The great hope of the 'red eagles' is based on playing the secondleg in Portugal.

What is clear is that the team led by Luis Filipe Vieira has gone from strength to strength this season. It began in the domestic championship erratic, self - conscious about the "betrayal" of his coach in recent years.And it is that Jorge Jesus changed sides and went over to Sporting Lisbon.But over the months you have seen consolidate the commitment Rui Vitória, the coach who brought up from level to Guimaraes.

Your profile is completely different: no polemics and a rigor that has finished paying off, as the Benfica has regained the lead in the Portuguese League.Brazilian Jonas , former Valencia striker shines at the point of attack and march prominent in the struggle for the "top scorer" with 28 goals. Le clothes Greek Mitroglou , maybe something irregular but usually demonstrates a defendant thrust. In fact, on the agenda of several European giants.

Gaitan Argentine and Mexican Raul Jimenez , former Atletico Madrid, also exhibited his punching power, albeit intermittently. But the rising star of Benfica is the young Renato Sanches, 18, ​​who excels in the midfield and sees its price increase. His contribution to the Portuguese national team in the next European Championship in France can shoot even more pedigree.
