Champions League Quarter-Final update.

Hello! Well the first legs have been played and the favorites were victorious in both accounts! Benfica were edged at home in Portugal by Chelsea 0-1 after Saloman Kalou connected with a brilliant ball from FernandoTorres and guided it past Benfica's goalkeeper Artur and into the back of the net. Meanwhile, Real Madrid probably crushed the dreams of the Cypriots as they demolished APOEL in Cyprus 0-3. Once again, the 2nd half saw the difference made as Karim Benzema headed home a sweet cross from Kaka to put a crack in APOEL's determination. Kaka proceeded to further widen the wound - scoring in the 82nd minute after Marcelo and Cristiano Ronaldo play some nice football to get into position. APOEL then tried to come at least one back but instead conceded at the other end after Cristiano Ronaldo passed to Mesut Ozil who found Karim Benzema in the center. 0-3 for Real Madrid and the Semi-Finals will see Chelsea and Madrid going at it for a place in the Final at Bayern. Look for it!
