Time for the serious business in the Champions League. Tonight the UCL schedules the second leg match of the semi-final clash between Manchester United and Barcelona. If last week’s first leg was a little boring I am sure that tonight, the two squads won’t allow themselves a similar outcome. This is guaranteed by the fact that tonight we will know which side is out and which got the tickets for the final.

You should imagine that such an important clash couldn’t be missed here at the FootieDB. The live coverage will start at once with the kick-off.
