UEFA Champions League:My Prediction


Last nights in Europe(in Canada it's afternoon),quarterfinals of UEFA Champions League.Although a Celtic fan(which already disqualified),but still remained observing one of the most prestigue cup in Europe.

In Old Trafford,title holder Manchester United are losing grip against 2004 Champion FC Porto.The defending champions might facing difficult task to defend their title in Dragao,Porto next week.However,solid rock defender Rio Ferdinand might return back and it would be great for the Red Devils.

United 2-2 Porto
MU:Rooney 15,Tevez 86
POR:Rodriguez 8,Mariano 89

In El Madrigal,home Villareal CF are also tight with away Arsenal.This is a great chance for Arsene's boys to qualify to the next stage.Arsenal's best achievement in Champions League was 2006,qualified to the final but lost to Barcelona FC.

Villareal 1-1 Arsenal
VIL:Senna 10
ARS:Adebayor 66

In Anfield,Mighty Reds,the 5 times Champions Liverpool FC in shock defeat in home with another English rival Chelsea FC.The Londoners has managed to win in Anfield for the first time since Roman Abramovich takeover.However,it was The Reds who leading when sensational Fernando Torres scores as early as minute 6.Chelsea should be thankful with defender Branislav Ivanovic for two header and Didier Drogba to The Blues win.

Liverpool 1-3 Chelsea
LIV:Torres 6
CHE:Ivanovic 39,62,Drogba 67

In Nou Camp,Catalan giant Barcelona FC reveals that they are the force of the football today.The youngest manager on competition,Josep 'Pep' Guardiola shows that Barcelona might bidding 'treble title' this season.Argentine superstar Lionel Messi are absolute sensational,while Bayern defenders keep blaming each other as the Catalan giant smacked the Germans 4-0.

Barcelona 4-0 Bayern
BAR:Messi 9,38,Eto'o 12,Henry 43
BAY:none

The next match is on April 14th.

Chelsea vs Liverpool(Stamford Bridge,London)
Bayern Munich vs Barcelona(Allianz Arena,Munich)
Arsenal vs Villareal(Emiriates Stadium,London)
Porto vs Manchester United(Dragao,Porto)

The final will be held in Stadio Olympico,Rome.
MY PREDICTION:
United will managed to win,in small amount of goal.Maybe 1-0.I don't think Cristiano Ronaldo will score because he is in Porto,which he is a hate figure,because he is from arch rivals Sporting Lisbon.I think it will be Rooney.
Arsenal will win the match,3-0.Easy when you're in Emiriates.Adebayor will score one of the goals.
Liverpool won't have a chance to qualify after a huge defeat with Chelsea.I think Chelsea will play defensively,although without captain John Terry.I think the game will be on Chelsea,2-0.
Barcelona don't have a problem in this match.I think some key players like Lionel Messi and Henry will be rested.Take a look Bojan Krkic,he is the rising star.Barcelona will win,maybe 2-0 will be enough.

Best performance of top 8:

Champions:
Liverpool FC(5 times-1977,1978,1981,1984,2005)
Bayern Munich(4 times 1974,1975,1976,2001)
Manchester United(3 times-1968,1999,2008)
Barcelona FC(2 times-1992,2006)
Porto FC(2 times-1987,2004)

Finalist:
Arsenal(lost to Barcelona in 2006)
Chelsea(lost to Manchester United in 2008)

Semi finalist:
Villareal(lost to Arsenal in 2006)

nice one Ez..
I really hope that ur prediction will be true..
I believe MU can still win in Dargao..
N yeah, it's hard for Liv to overcome Chelsea. they need at least 3 more goals without conceding any.
Barca will have an easy path to semi. N yeah, i think Bojan will play and replace Henry.

If all of this become reality, in semi it'll be either:

MU vs Chelsea
Arsenal Vs Barca

or

MU Vs Barca
Arsenal Vs Chelsea

it'll be a great semi either or. hehehe... can't wait.
