Real Madrid with a coach that matches expectations, managed a run through the quarterfinal games against Tottenham. With an aggregate score of 5-0, the words are insufficient to express the English pain. All the weight remains on Manchester United to keep the flag high for the queen.

The teams were align following:
Tottenham: Gomes, Bale, Huddlestone, Lennon, Pavlyuchenko, Van der Vaart, Gallas, Modric, Dawson, Corluka, Assou-Ekotto
Substitutes: Cudicini, Kaboul, Jenas, defoe, Bassong, Kranjcar, Sandro

Real Madrid: Casillas, Carvalho, Sergio Ramos, Cristiano Ronaldo, Marcelo, Xabi Alonso, Arbeloa, Albiol, Ozil, Khedira, Adebayor
Substitutes: Adan, Kaka, Benzema, Granero, Garay, Higuain, Di Maria

The game was balanced enough but the genius mind from Real, Cristiano Ronaldo, took a shoot from 25m, Tottenham’s goalkeeper, Gomez , let’s the ball slide through his hands. A small score but add +1 at the four from the first round and you have a qualification obtained.

Next stage of UEFA Champions League is a new “El clasico” from Primera Division between Real and Barca.
