El tropiezo de Atlético de Madrid ante Sevilla dejó al Barcelona afilándose los dientes.

La oportunidad, ciertamente, no la desaprovechó, pero costó litros y litros de sudor.
Zinedine Zidane cree que el Real Madrid está siendo subestimado en la previa del partido de ida de los cuartos de final de la Liga de Campeones, este martes, frente al Liverpool de Inglaterra.

Si consigue superar al Liverpool, los merengues tendrán una semifinal contra el Chelsea o el Porto y quedará a un paso de lograr su decimocuarto triunfo europeo.
