The last 16 teams to reach the second round of the UEFA Champions League were drawn Friday, December 18 at 11 am GMT.
For the first time in five years, Liverpool failed to qualify for the knockout stages of the tournament, leaving English hopes of Champions League glory to Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal.
The Draw
Stuttgart vs Barcelona
Olympiakos FC vs Bordeaux
Inter Milan vs Chelsea
Bayern Munich vs Fiorentina
CSKA Moscow vs Sevilla
Lyon vs Real Madrid
FC Porto vs Arsenal
AC Milan vs Manchester United
Each of the remaining English teams managed to win their qualifying group, securing a supposedly easier draw in the knockout round against the runners-up of other groups. Both Chelsea and Manchester United however managed to draw the two giants of Milan, Inter and AC.
David Beckham could be returning to Old Trafford to face-off against former teammates as Manchester United face arguably the toughest draw against AC Milan. The self-appointed “Special One” Jose Mourinho will return to his old stomping ground at Chelsea to pit his wits against Carlo Ancelotti.
Arsenal can be reasonably happy with their draw against FC Porto, who do not command the European presence with their team that they did a few years ago. Eyes will also be on the two Spanish seeds, current champions Barcelona face Stuttgart and Real Madrid will play Lyon.
Barcelona are still in fine form, and should have little problem seeing off the German qualifiers. Having spent over £200 million restructuring their team this year, expectations are high for Real Madrid with the likes of Ronaldo, Kaka and Alonso.
Added pressure is also on Real to perform, as this year’s final will take place in their home stadium at the Bernabeu in Madrid on 22 May 2010.



















It’s the time now for United to revenge AC Milan.

Even though I’m not a fan of Real Madrid, it’s time for them to get gold in the Champions League which they’ve been trying to do for years.

Are you aware that Jose Mourinho calls himself the “special one” not the “chosen one”?
You should really research this.

Thanks for the comment, you’re absolutely correct and the article has been edited to reflect the correct title.
The writer has been summarily berated for confusing Jose Mourinho and Anakin Skywalker, neither of which was able to live up to their inflated hype.
