So are the knockout stages of the Champions League

This morning was made ​​in Nyon the draw for the knockout stages of the UEFA Champions League 2012-2013. The pairings of the Spanish teams are: AC Milan-FC Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid, Manchester United, Valencia CF- PSG and FC Porto-Málaga CF. The other four eighths crossings are: Galatasaray-Schalke 04, Celtic, Juventus, Arsenal, Bayern and Borussia-Shaktar.

The first legs will be played between 12 and 13 February, while the back will be played one week later, between 19 and 20 March. We recall that the final is scheduled for May 25 and will be held at Wembley Stadium, and in the 2010-11 edition, in which the club won its fourth Champions Manchester United (3-1).

The fate of the Spanish teams has been more influenced than other times by its position in the draw. So, that left both clubs being seeded (for finishing the group stage in first place) will face rivals most renowned of hype (taking into account, of course, they could not catch up with the are clearly stronger, Real Madrid, as long as computers still can not cross the same country).

FC Barcelona will fight for it to the quarter with AC Milan, a team that today is a skinny cow with a template and a set well below the name of the institution. Malaga, meanwhile, will have to see the faces with which to me is the worst possible thing that could rival touch: FC Porto. Both teams will have the (alleged) advantage of playing the second leg at home.

Real, real coconut for all first group, has been paired with Manchester United, current Premier League leader. A tough cookie that promises a very interesting tie. Surely many Madridistas are reminiscing with a smile on his face Raul's goal after jugadón Redondo or Ronaldo hat-trick . Valencia, meanwhile, will have to deal with the new rich of Europe, the Paris Saint-Germain of Ibrahimovic, Pastore, Thiago Silva, Lavezzi and Sheikh ... Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, right.

So a boat soon, before we get into a specific analysis of each heat (until February there a long time and many things can change), how do you see the crosses of the Spanish teams are Who you are more difficult to pass the quarter?
