There also should be Barton's corner kick goal...but these are nice too ;)

but this unbelievable goal will never forget :D

he was one of my favourites player in my hometown club when he played there for one season in 94/95

the good old glorydays ... but theyre coming back!

the most interesting thing about bressan was that he didn't played regularly for Fiorentina and this great goal was scored in a champions league match against one of the best teams in the world, Barcelona.

I like tottenham - lyon, maybe liverpool - zenit. The rest meh...

in that case I think you have been living under a rock (or you never really followed European footie)

Bayer - Benfica is the only one that sounds interesting

You dont like Basel - Dnipro? :P

Obviously few great matches at first sight.
- some 'names' are crap for some time and are already eliminated (Lisbon, ...)
- its early stage ...

But yeah, if you say 'meh' to Bayer - Benfica ... no comment :)

Some great matches! I liked the draw.

And I can see great matches for the next round too...

Well, today will be the first leg...
