I leave the nickname allocation to the expert, Foots-Villy.

1-2. Defensive cock-up and they're back in it having not looked vaguely threatening until then.

[Olneythelonely]

Seems like the kids can also dominate games, miss loads of chances and let the opposition score without them needing to do anything.

[cdbearsfan]

Four minutes added on.

[cdbearsfan]

Magyars hit the bar.

[cdbearsfan]

We're through.

They'll fit right in.

So, through to the last sixteen. All remaining ties are one leg. Home advantage in last sixteen and quarter-finals decided by draw. The semi-finals and final are all played in the space of a week in Nyon, Switzerland. We find out all our potential opponents on Friday.

These are the other teams through:

Atalanta
AZ Alkmaar
VfB Stuttgart
Inter
Bayern Munich
Hoffenheim
Sturm Graz
Barcelona
Manchester City
Salzburg
Sporting
Olympiacos
Real Madrid
Trabzonspor
Rapid Vienna or Atletico Madrid (kicks off 5.30pm our time).

Athletico won 2-1.

[cdbearsfan]

A home game at 3pm, followed by the first team's first leg on the big screen (ideally 5.45pm kick off) would be good.

Home to Barcelona in last sixteen of UEFA Youth League.

Away to Sporting Lisbon or Stuttgart in the quarter-finals if we get through.

[Dave P]

Home to Barcelona in last sixteen of UEFA Youth League.

Away to Sporting Lisbon or Stuttgart in the quarter-finals if we get through.

They should put that at Villa Park.

[Somniloquism]

We are potentially playing at home that day so I expect they won't want a match played on the pitch beforehand, plus all youth kick-offs are in the early afternoon.

[cdbearsfan]

Nah, we are potentially away that day.

maybe look at putting it on at Walsall or something similar though.
