The Champions League quarterfinal draw put Barcelona and Real Madrid on opposite sides, while Chelsea will face Benfica in the quarters.
Many football fans were hoping for Barcelona and Real Madrid to meet in either the Champions League quarterfinals or semifinals -- two games instead of one. But placed on opposite sides in Friday's draw, it didn't happen. However, the Spanish giants are favored to meet in the May 19 final in Munich, so for those fans suffering from Clasico fatigue, a one-off title match is even more appealing.
Barcelona, on reputation, has an interesting quarterfinal against Serie A leader Milan, with Real paired with the team everyone wanted . APOEL.
