The posters are now known. And they did not disappoint with a huge clash between the two executioners of the French clubs, Chelsea, who defeated Lille, and Real Madrid, winner of PSG in the previous round. The quarter-finals of the Champions League should hold their share of suspense and spectacle with this other poster opposing Manchester City to Atlético de Madrid. The two surprises of these quarters will still have to thwart the forecasts: Villareal will challenge Bayern Munich while Benfica will face Liverpool.

Just after drawing the teams that would face each other in the quarter-finals, former French international Mikael Silvestre, accompanied by FIFA Secretary General Giorgio Marchetti, proceeded to the second draw: that of the posters in the semi-finals. And inevitably, the encounters there could once again be spectacular. The winner of the match between Chelsea and Real Madrid will face that of Manchester City-Atlético de Madrid.
On the other side of the table a possible duel at the top is looming, between Bayern Munich and Liverpool. But for that, it will first be necessary to get rid of their opponents in three weeks, April 5 and 6 for the first legs, 12 and 13 for the return matches.
