Real Madrid : CSKA Moscow - Before the game
Real Madrid is to face the Russian leader CSKA Moscow in the first game the two teams will play in the 1/8 finals. The Russian giant is a well-known in the European tournaments team, but it is well-known fact that football in Russia is not what it used to be. On the other hand we have Real Madrid who are having their best performance for the last 5 years. It seems this is their season, is it not? Well it seems statistics are on CSKA's side - they have the previous two games in Russia. Moreover the temperature during the game will show -6 - -7 C. It wouldn't be a surprise if Madrid find the temperature too cold for them to reveal their great skills. But what Real Madrid have on their side is Mourinho. He has beat CSKA with both Chelsea FC and Internazionale Milan. He knows the Russian style and the weaknesses. Anyhow the game promises an interesting match, a derby between the Russians under their cold turf and the Espaniols the conquiztadors.
Don't miss it!!
