The Champion’s League Quarter-finals Pot is almost set. The following teams have advanced:
Manchester United
Chelsea
Arsenal
FC Barcelona
Roma
Schalke
Fenerbahce
The 8th and final team of the pot will be decided on March 12th, 2008 when Inter Milan host Liverpool at the San Siro.
Liverpool go to Milan with a 2-0 advantage. It will be extremely difficult for Inter to overcome such as deficit. If Liverpool score 1 goal, Inter will need to score 4 goals in regulation time to over the aggregate scoreline. There is a good chance Liverpool will progress, establishing 4 English teams in the final 8.
