Real draw Bayern Munich

Bayern Munich crestReal Madrid and Bayern Munich were drawn together in the last-16 stage of the Champions League. Between them, the two clubs have won this competition 13 times and met in seven editions (1976, 1987, 1988, 2000, 2001, 2002 and 2004), with Real Madrid winning four to Bayern's three (although in 2000 they met in both the groups stages and the semifinals; Bayern won three games to Real's one, but it was the Madrid side that made the final).

The first leg will be played at the Bernabéu on February 20th and the return at the Allianz Arena in Munich on March 7th.

Wow!
I really wasn't expecting Bayern. I watched the draw alive and it was funny to see Porto's representatives' facial expressions when they knew they'll be facing Chelsea.
A lot of "Morbo" between the Real and Bayern, let's hope things go pretty well.
