List Of Teams For Round Of 16

United fan on the quickdraw happened to mention “CSKA Moscow 1-0 PSV, and PSV are down to ten men, we are through to the Champions League round of 16”. Olympiakos already beat Arsenal this year, 3-2, on the Gunners’ home turf. From its controversial ousting of its first-team doctor to its continued downward spiral in the Premier League standings (the 2014-15 champions are now in 14th place), it seems everything that could go wrong for the Blues has gone wrong.

Manchester United started the match very well against VFL Wolfsburg.

Champions League elimination will no doubt see United attempt to focus more on the Premier League, a season in which one of four clubs could feasibly claim the title, yet only Leicester City are playing with an intent to actually win the crown this season. The team will hope to change that on Wednesday when it meets Porto to keep its spot in the Champions League.

Victory against BATE Borisov would secure second spot in Group E, while a draw would be enough provided Bayer Leverkusen do not win at Barcelona.

“I think it is a big, big difference”.

Gary Neville could face a reunion with his former club Manchester United after Christmas.

“Every team finishing second wants to play us or Zenit St Petersburg”, Mourinho said.

Spain also have three clubs in the knockout phase with ten times champions Real Madrid, holders Barcelona and Atletico Madrid.

As such, it is possible that former Old Trafford favourite Neille will lead his new side in a two-legged kockout tie against United in the New Year.

“It’s very annoying”, said coach Dieter Hecking, whose side is out to fix damaged pride against Manchester United.

Louis van Gaal’s side have struggled for goals this season and while they finally found the back of the net twice, they conceded more goals against Wolfsburg (3) than they had done in their previous 11 outings. City, who are obliged by the weight of Abu Dhabi money to win the trophy soon, can play PSG, PSV, Benfica, Roma, Dynamo Kyiv or Gent.

“Are there any? De Gea definitely”, Owen asserted, but after the goalkeeper – who was linked with a move to Real Madrid throughout the summer – it is slim pickings.
