So glad this is the draw!
Man City v Real Madrid, Pellegrini’s old club.
And Atletico Madrid v Bayern Munich.
Bayern’s defence often looks very dodgy to me.
The team has been very successful while playing in a risky way, as Benfica demonstrated this week before losing unluckily in the Stadium Of Light.
If top scorer Jonas had been playing, and Gaitan as well, that second leg might have had a very different result.
While watching the holes in Bayern Munich’s back four, and the erratic moments produced by World Cup-winning keeper Manuel Neuer, I kept thinking, “They’re made for Griezmann!”
PS My instinct on last night’s Liverpool epic was in the right ball-park
