Soccer Wednesday: Your Running Commentary

ChampsLeagueLogo

The UEFA Champions League knockout stage continues, with the finalists from the 2010 tournament looking to secure road results in the first legs of their Round of 16 ties.

The 2010 champions, Inter Milan, are stuck in a dreadful run of form, not having won in their last six matches (0-5-1 in that time). The Italian side will look to capitalize on the Serie A UCL momentum put forth by AC Milan and Napoli in its tricky match at Marseille.

Bayern Munich, meanwhile, must beware the underdog that is FC Basel. The Swiss side stunned Manchester United in their group finale to advance to the knockout round and force the favored Red Devils down to the UEFA Europa League, and they'll be aiming to claim another victim at home against the German power.

Here is the viewing schedule for the day's remaining matches:

2:45 p.m. – Fox Soccer Channel – Marseille vs. Inter Milan

2:45 p.m. – Fox Soccer Plus – FC Basel vs. Bayern Munich

  1. I would love a quarterfinal round with no epl, no bayern, no inter. CSKA in place of madrid is probably too much to ask though…

  2. well at least neither of the ACN guys scored… which is good for CD other than that fact that they’re gonna get relegated obviously. Just wondering if either of them blew a chance as badly as CD did 2 games ago.

  4. US U-23 wins 2-1 over FCD despite only having 9 men on the field for the last quarter hour. Dallas saw Ferreira return for his first minutes since that horrible injury. High pressure from the U23’s and their 4-3-3 formation. Brek Shea got TWO yellow cards, one for a hack on teamate Zach Lloyd and another on a FCD trialist.
