As expected, Barcelona and PSG advanced to the Final Eight of the Champions League. The Barca/City match was on at SSN Headquarters and it offered some fun. Mainly in form of wondering why James Milner was on the pitch. Here's your lot of analysis and thoughts and things and such:
Sid Lowe at Camp Nou: One flick of Messi's left foot ends talk of crisis
Graham Hunter: After weeks of struggle, Barcelona get it right
Mark Ogden: Four Talking Points
Barcelona 2 - 1 Manchester City: Five Talking Points
Paris St-Germain 2 - 1 Bayer Leverkusen: Report
PSG vs. Leverkusen: Three Things

Oops. Bayern President and World Cup winner Uli Hoeness has been sentenced to three years in prison for tax evasion. Das is not goot.
Oops II. Everybody's favorite Danish drunk Nicklas Bendtner is back in the news. Per usual, it's not for the "right" reasons. Here's what the cabbie in Copenhagen had to say: "He stood at the back of the car and rubbed up against the side window after unbuttoning his pants while he whipped the cab with his belt and shouted he wanted to 'fuck me'," he added. "I've had drunks and alcoholics in my cab in Copenhagen over the last 25 years, but I've never experienced anything like this."
Oops III. What is it with bad behavior? Eric Cantona was arrested for assault.
Back to Brazil now, where Tim Vickery is taking a look at ticket sales. He's even attempted to buy some himself.
That other European club competition is today. Juventus and Fiorentina clash for the second time in a week, and Tottenham host Benfica. There are other matches but we're not terribly interested in them.
And we out.
Onward!
