March 16 (Wed)
4 points: Manchester United vs Atletico
Highlight 1: 1-1 in the first leg, who can qualify for the big club duel?
In the first leg, Felix opened the scoring in the 7th minute, Andranga equalised in the 80th minute and United took a point away from home. According to the previous rules, they can qualify in the second leg as long as they keep 0-0 at home, but now the rules for away goals have been abolished, so for the Red Devils and Atletico, it is a restarted competition, and whoever wins will advance to the quarterfinals.
Watch point 2: After hat-trick, C Ronaldo became a Atletico buster?
Against Tottenham Hotspur, Cristiano Ronaldo scored a hat-trick and was crowned the all-time top scorer, while he scored 25 goals against Atletico in 36 times in his career and is a famous "Atletico nemesis"! However, in the first leg, the president played a full game and performed mediocrely, without any shooting, so now that he is in a state again, can he continue to explode? We'll see.
Watch point 3: Su Shen fights the Dream Theater again, booing and waiting?
Suarez was a liverpool player and had a grudge with Evra, so when he came to the Theatre of Dreams this time, he must have heard boos from Manchester United fans. And he played against the Red Devils 9 times in his career, although he only scored 2 goals, but all of them scored at the Dream Theater! But the last time was in March 2014, exactly 8 years ago!
Highlight 4: Manchester United in time for rain! The three main forces are back
The three main players B Fee, Scott McTominay and Luke Shaw are all absent from the match against Tottenham, but they have resumed training and it is undoubtedly timely rain for Manchester United. But it also tests Lonnick's coaching ability, because Pogba, Nemanja Matic and Tres have all performed well in the last game, how should he line up?
4 points: Ajax vs Benfica
Highlight 5: 2-2 in the first leg, Jia Fu won seven consecutive games at home
In the first leg, Ajax drew 2-2 away to Benfica, but due to the cancellation of the away scoring rules, there was no advantage in 2 goals, and it was still difficult to predict whether he could advance to the quarterfinals. However, Jaffa has maintained all three home wins in the champions league this season, and the last seven home games in all competitions have won all.
Highlight 6: Alai Sword Finger 8 combo
Ajax's high striker Alai has made history when he was the first player in history to score in his first seven Champions League games and the player to score 11 goals in the Champions League at the fastest pace. Now, he has the opportunity to strike the miracle of 8 combos! The historical record is Ronaldo's 10 combos.
Watch Point 7: Benfica Breaks the 6-Year Curse?
Benfica won the Champions League in 1961 and 1962, but the last time she reached the quarter-finals of the Champions League was in the 2015-2016 season. Six years later, they have a chance to qualify again, and they must beat Ajax away from home in order to make the Portuguese Premier League, not the Dutch First Division, the only seed outside the five major leagues.
