One team FC Barcelona won’t be facing if they get through to the Champions League final in May is Manchester United, after they crashed out in the quarter-final stage last night.
After losing 2-1 against Bayern Munich in the away leg, it looked like Man Utd had done enough when they went 3-0 up. However, Bayern began to claw back some of the advantage when they made the scoreline 3-1; and when Rafael Da Silva was sent of at the beginning of the second half it tipped the balance in the German team’s favour.
Bayern Munich went on to score one more to lose the match 3-2; however, the aggregate score was a 4-4 draw, with Bayern going through on away goals.
Last year Barça beat the German’s in the quart-final stage, winning 4-0 at home and drawing 1-1 away. Prior to that Barcelona played Bayern Munich in the annual Gamper Trophy, winning 1-0.
