Champions League elite eight kicks off

Since we're down to the quarterfinals, I will add Champions League highlights clips to the video rotation. I will do the same for the last edition of the UEFA Cup once they hit the final four.

Manchester United 2 Porto 2

Still clearly hobbled by injuries quality-wise, the Red Devils managed to grab a late lead thanks to a super throw-in set play that allowed Rooney to flick for Tévez to net. However, United got dizzy at the back near time, leaving Porto sub Mariano unmarked at the far post for a last gasp equalizer (and second away goal).



Villarreal 1 Arsenal 1

Jozy Altidore was surely up and hollering at home when Marcos Senna put the Yellow Submarines ahead with a long range screamer, but Manu Adebayor pulled the visitors level with a supreme strike midway through the second half.
