17:45 CET – Hello and welcome back to our coverage of the UEFA Champions League! On nights like tonight, I always wonder what it is like to not be interested in football as magical Champions League nights pass you by. But luckily if you are reading this, that is not you! So what is there to look forward to over the next two unmissable days?
We at Flashscore have previewed the best of this weeks action in our European Highlights feature, check it out!
If you are feeling nostalgic then Real Madrid against AC Milan from 21:00 CET is a classic Champions League tie between two clubs with rich history and a long-standing rivalry. Milan’s city rivals Inter are also involved in a must-watch game as they host Arsenal tomorrow night in a game between two well-coached sides.
If you are either a Sporting CP or Manchester United fan, then your eyes will surely be glued to Sporting vs Manchester City in Ruben Amorim’s final European tie before joining the red side of Manchester at the start of the international break.
Check out the preview for that game here.
Amorim will be deeply missed by the Sporting fans, evidenced by tickets for his final game this weekend selling out in one minute. He is leaving behind a legacy of breaking the seemingly impenetrable dominance of Porto and Benfica whilst playing a style of football to be proud of.
His attention will now be turning to Thursday nights and the Europa League at his new employers.
