Champions League Draw





I haven’t updated my blog for a while but I thought it would be good to start again with the Champions League draw which was held yesterday.

8 teams remain in the competition, all looking to book a place in the final on 14 May 2015 in Berlin.  Wolfsburg will be aiming to retain the title for the third year in a row but their German counterparts Frankfurt will be aiming to become the first club to lift the trophy four times. 

There are 2 British teams remaining in the competition that will be eager to progress through to the semi-finals in April but they come against strong competition with Glasgow City meeting PSG and Bristol Academy taking on Frankfurt.
