Totenham Hotspurs managed to hold on to their aggregate 1-0 lead to AC Millan last night at the San siro in Millan. The Londoners fans were holding hands as the Italians were putting pressure on them, while on the other side Millan fans were hoping to see two or more goals to be scored by the team as they had home ground advantage. the home side was pullimg fierworks from the start of the match with only poor finishing let them down. a superb goal line clearance from Gallas helped the team to stay on their toes. credit must also be given to Spurs goalkeeper who stopped shots from Pato and Robinho.
Crouch also had his chances to head the ball into the net, but only managed to pass it to the goalkeeper. Van der Waart also took a few shots to the goals, but the goalkeeper dealt with them easily. Spurs would look out to extend their Champions league success by reaching the semi finals. Barcelona beat Arsenal on their second leg round of their last 16. The gunners of London were hoping to eliminate Barcelona as they had an advantage of a 2-1 win from the first leg, only to find out that Barca had other plans on their minds as they displayed wonderful attacking football from the start of the game.
It was Lionel Messi again who broke the Gunners hearts.He opened the score line with a well taken goal after a mistake from Captain Cesc Fabregas, and he later coverted a spot kick. He is now on Barca's history books after the two goals he scored against Arsenal, means he is the clubs top goal scorer in European competitions aged 23. with 45 goals in 39 games and 8 goals from 8 matches in the champions league while domestically he has scored 27 from 23 games. he beats the previous record of Rivaldo with 31, and Louis Enrique at the top of his game in the 1990's only had 27 goals.
