Last 8: Leg 2, Day 2

Bayern Munchen 0-2 AC Milan (Agg: 2-4, Milan advances)

Luck finally ran out on the injury-depleted side from Munich as they lost the home leg of their tie to AC Milan 0-2. Bayern started the match strong and appeared to be building on the momentum of their 2-2 draw with Milan at the San Siro last week. But within the space of four minutes the Rossoneri scored two away goals and put the tie away for good. The first was off the foot of Dutch-Surinamese midfielder Clarence Seedorf in the 28th minute, the second from Italian international forward Filippo Inzaghi off a fick from Seedorf in the in 32nd minute. The six time winners find themselves in a familiar position headed back to the semifinals to take on two time winners Manchester United. With no chance at the Italian Serie A title in large part due to the points penalty they received in the match fixing scandal from last summer the Rossoneri have all their season’s hopes pinned on their success in the Champions League.


Liverpool 1-0 PSV Eindhoven (Agg: 4-0, Liverpool advances)

Playing at home with a three goal advantage Liverpool was content to play keep away from PSV at Anfield. Peter Crouch continued where he left off last week with the lone goal of the match in the 68th minute. A rare moment of drama occurred when the Italian referee dismissed PSV’s 18 year old defender Dirk Marcellis in his Champions League debut with a red card. The Kop were in splendid voice working their way through their entire repertoire of celebration songs from the beginning of the match. They’ll need the practice for the next round as the five time winners take on Chelsea in a rematch of the semifinals from two years ago.
