The quarterfinals of the Champions League continues this Tuesday, and we are going to see two great games, one in Rome and the second in Manchester.

Roma and Manchester City are ahead of mission impossible tomorrow. Both teams have a three-goal deficit, the Italians against Barcelona and Citizens against Liverpool, and it is hard to say which side is in a worse position. Roma lost 4-1 in Spain, while Liverpool demolished City 3-0 at Anfield.

After that game, Guardiola’s boys received another painful blow, in a local derby against United which they lost 2-3, although leading two goals at halftime.

”We are disappointed and sad for losing to United. We have to turn the page quickly as possible because Liverpool awaits us,” said City’s defender Danilo.

Reds are fatal for City this season because they have two wins against one of the most dominant English teams in the last decade.

In the second event of the night, Barcelona is close to reaching their 11th semifinals in the Champions League. If by any chance, Roma eliminates the Spanish powerhouse, it going to be only the fourth time in history that they dropped the lead from the first match.
All the games are starting at 8:45 pm Central European Time.
