What sport is that?

It sounds like European soccer, it even calls itself 'Champions League' but there are two teams from Russia and none from Manchester, so that can't be right.

What is a 'APOEL Nicosia'?

Obviously not.

I had to Google Nicosia to find out they are from Cyprus. What the hell are they doing there?

Oh brilliant. That means the now traditonal Barca/Arsenal quarter final disaster might still be on the cards. I still have nightmares where bloody Lionel Messi is running riot (and around Arsenal defenders at will) some nights.

Wow, what a tie(and hopefully a sign of things to come for the rest of the season).

3-1 Chelsea at FT(and all square) and now heading to ET.

C'mon the blues.

Re: 2011-12 UEFA Champions League

We're through.

Best game of the season by far for me. We play like that and we can beat anyone.

Re: 2011-12 UEFA Champions League

Great win by Chelsea.
Good to see some teams aren't suffering squeaky bum ( hello City)
Barca and Madrid for mine

Hopefully(for my sake) they get drawn to play each other in the elite eight.
