Who are the quarterfinalists?
- real Madrid
- Barcelona
- Atletico Madrid
- Manchester City
- Arsenal
- PSG
- Bayern Monaco
- Borussia Dortmund
There are three from the Spanish La Liga, two from the Premier League, one from France and the duo from the Bundesliga; That is, no presence of Italian teams, unlike the previous season, when Inter came second. The Nerazzurri were eliminated on penalties against Diego Simeone’s team.
The largest representative is Spain. Real Madrid’s qualification against Leipzig was predictable, but the other two had a bit of suspense.
Atleti were behind having lost the first leg 1-0; However, in the second leg, they managed to equalize and go to extra time and then penalties, which completed an exciting day by giving them the victory.
For Barça, who eliminated Napoli on Tuesday, passage to the quarter-finals was the first since 2020.
Manchester City is the great candidate who will go in search of the two-time scudetto. Meanwhile, Arsenal return to the quarter-finals for the first time since 2010 and are thrilled to go far.
Paris Saint-Germain returns to the ring after their best time in the tournament in 2020, when they finished second.
Representatives of Germany are not the most promising candidates. Although Borussia is in fourth place and Bayern in second place in the German championship, the present of both presents irregularities. This tournament would be a great way to help us be protagonists this year.
Lottery format
The main feature is that there will be no restrictions for the preliminaries. This means there will be no seeding and it will be completely random, meaning any team of the eight will be able to play any other regardless of whether they are from the same country or have already played each other in the group stage.
