Two Mars Bars And A Slurpee

European Action


Updates:
  • 90 mins: Arsenal and Barca are though after winning both their home ties 2-0. They will now join AC Milan and Villarreal in the Final Four.
  • 88 mins: Just what was needed to settle the nerves, Eto'o scores for Barca and they now lead 2-0.
  • 80 mins: Nedved (Juve's Czech playmaker) has been sent off for a second yellow card. Surely that's it for Juve.

The last two Quarter Finals are in the closing stages now, with Arsenal holding Juventus, who despite having the majority of the possession so far 66% have only had 2 shots on target compared with the Gunner's 6! If they go through Reyes (who's just been subbed with Pires) will miss the 1st leg of the semi-final after picking up a yellow card (his 3rd in the competition).

In the other game Barcelona are leading 1-0 in Spain through a 19 minute Ronaldinho goal. A goal from the Portuguese though would give them the upper hand and the valuable away goal. Barcelona need to look for a second to avoid that scenario.
