Champion League - review 18/19 March 2014

In this weeks Champions League games Barcelona beat Manchester City by two goals to one on the night and overall by four goals to one. 

It was always going to be a tough ask for Manchester City to turn around a two goal deficit and going down to to ten made their mission impossible. 

However Man City can now focus all their efforts on winning the Premiership where they have a two game advantage.

Elsewhere Manchester United beat Olympiakos by three goals to nil and winning the tie by three goals to two. 

To be fair I would have been really shocked if Olympiakos had beaten Man United at Old Trafford. 

This win did ease the pressure on David Moyes as some fans don't believe that he will bring Man United silverware.

 So this win was a stay of execution for David Moyes the problem for him is the battle gets even tougher from here.

Champions League - Review 11th/12th March 2014

Champions league returned this week and Arsenal drew one all on the night but lost the tie by three goals to one. 

Arsenal played reasonably well but to be fair it was always going to be an uphill task to beat Bayern Munich let alone with at least three first team players missing. 

All it means is that Arsenal now focus on hopefully winning the FA Cup and the Premiership and with a more realistic chance of winning the FA Cup. 

Elsewhere Barcelona beat Manchester City by two goals to one on the night but by four goals to one overall. 

Manchester City where a little bit unlucky to go out of the competition but it means they can focus all their energies on trying to win the Premiership.

Champions League review

In Tuesday's Champions League games Barcelona beat ten man, Man City by two goals to nil. 

This was a bad result for Man City and if they have any hope of going through they need to be able to beat Barcelona at the Nou Camp and this is something few teams have been able to do. 

In yesterday's champions leagues games Bayern Munich beat ten men, Arsenal by two goals to nil. 

It was a rough night for Arsenal who missed penalty, then Kieran Gibbs got injured and that was shortly followed by the dismissal of the goalkeeper. 

Arsenal tried to hold on but it was no use and Bayern Munich played like the home team. 

If Arsenal are to go through they need to win by two clear goals in Germany and it does sound impossible but anything can happen in football.
