Morning Espresso, 3.4: Champions League previews in UEFA & Concacaf
Welcome in for another edition of the Morning Espresso from the SDH Network, brought to you by Oglethorpe University, Atlanta's premier undergraduate learning experience and soccer powerhouse.
UEFA Champions League & Concacaf Champions League Round of 16 gets started today. Here's your schedule in Europe:
Tuesday:
Club Brugge vs Aston Villa
Real Madrid vs Atletico Madrid
PSV vs Arsenal
Borussia Dortmund vs Lille
Wednesday:
Feyenoord vs Inter
PSG vs Liverpool
Bayern Munich vs Bayer Leverkusen
Benfica vs Barcelona
Some nuggets for you on each of those in today's pod. Can't wait to see the Madrid derbi and how Atleti stacks up. Also, PSG is an interesting watch tomorrow as they've won their last 10 matches in a row in all competitions.
In Concacaf, here's your Round of 16 schedule:
Tuesday:
Cincinnati vs Tigres
Pumas vs Alajualense
LAFC vs Columbus
Wednesday:
Chivas vs Club America
Herediano vs LA Galaxy
Seattle vs Cruz Azul
Vancouver vs Monterrey
Thursday:
Miami vs Cavalier FC
Deeper thoughts on all of those in the pod. Vancouver vs Monterrey might be the highest scoring series. LAFC trying to get over the hump against a Columbus side that has owned them lately. And come on, a SuperClasico in the Round of 16 in Concacaf with Chivas and America? Can't wait for all of the drama in all of these matchups over the next few days.
Go watch Lizbeth Ovalle's goal for Tigres last night in Liga MX Femenil. Incredible creativity to score that kind of goal.
