This Tuesday and Wednesday LATE (i.e. Wednesday morning and Thursday morning Korean time), the Champions League continues.
In the first match, it’s the epic battle of Real Madrid vs Barcelona. The first leg saw an ugly, ugly match won 2-0 by Barcelona, including a great solo effort from Lionel Messi. The game also included red cards to Pepe and coach Jose Mourinho, as well as a yellow card for Sergio Ramos that leaves him out of this week’s match. The first game was tainted by diving, fights and a post-match rant from Mourinho that called out UEFA officials as well as Barcelona’s dishonest (cheating) tactics. The second leg on Tuesday night (Wednesday morning) will hopefully be more exciting, as Real need at least 2 goals to get it into extra time and/or penalty kicks.
In the second game, Manchester United go into this second leg with a 2-0 lead over Schalke 04. The first game was really no contest, and the only question here is: Can Schalke leave Old Trafford without getting embarrassed?
The second leg of the Champions League quarterfinals start up this WEDNESDAY MORNING (Korea time). If you want to watch, they WILL be on Korean television – on MBC Sports. On my TV, it’s channel 67. Yours might be different. All the sports channels on mine are around the 60s.
