What a big match in the 2nd leg quarter-finals of UEFA Champions League that we will have Barcelona will entertain AC Milan. The 1st leg result which ended 0-0 still not a guarantee for both teams to qualify to the semi-finals. Barcelona dominated in Milan last week have proved that they are a favorite team to win Champions League this season.
The two sides have met three times this season with Barcelona lead by one win, and two draw. The last match which took place at Camp Nou happen in last September 2011, both teams shared 2-2 and only have one points. This time, Barcelona promise to play well and score a lot of goals. Pep Guardiola count it on trio Sanchez, Messi and Cesc Fabregas.
AC Milan have a great defense strategy within last week match, although they played without Thiago Silva but the veteran Alessandro Nesta played well to gave the tight marking to Messi who could not show his best form. This time the same strategy seems to be used by AC Milan manager Massimiliano Allegri when they take a journey to Spain. Zlatan Ibrahimovic have a task to lead the players to make something remarkable on this away match.
