Champions League knock-out draw announced

The Champions League draw was annouced over the weekend at UEFA headquaters in Zurich, with some saying Barcelona receiving all the luck as they are drawn Russian champions Zenit over the home and away ties.

On the flip side, main rivals for the title Real Madrid have been pitted against old enemies Juventus - having been knocked out by the Italians at the same stage in last season's tournament.

"Some might say it is unlucky to be drawn a good side like Juve, when other teams get an easier draw." JM said to waiting media.

"I would say I rather play a good opponent like Juve, we will get our revenge for last year (going down in a close Penalty Shoot-out), and we will progress."

And when asked about Barcelona's upcoming fixture with Russian side Zenit.
"I think playing in a cold, and snowy place with Zenit could still cause many problems for Barceloan - I'm just saying, yes." JM added.
