The former defender of Zenit and the Russian national team, Alexei Igonin, did not single out any of the formed pairs in the quarterfinals of the Champions League, emphasizing that it is now important for Russians to observe how world football is developing.
– In fact, the draw is more exciting when our clubs participate. Not always the final and the semi-finals, and even some group games can turn out to be both interesting and tedious. You need to watch any match, regardless of whether it is worthy of the final or not. Probably, for us now the most important thing is that our teams do not participate in European competitions, to see how it develops, where football is heading, – Igonin told Gazeta.Ru.
The draw for the quarter-finals of the Champions League took place on Friday. The composition of the pairs is as follows:
Real Madrid (Spain) – Chelsea (England);
Inter (Italy) – Benfica (Portugal);
Manchester City (England) – Bayern (Germany);
Milan (Italy) – Napoli (Italy).
Live broadcasts of the Champions League matches take place on the TV channels of the Match group, and you can also follow the progress of the games on the websites matchtv.ru and sportbox.ru.

The scorer of the brace against Chelsea is an Aston Villa player. Ollie Watkins appointed head coach of the team Unai Emery tactical genius. Watkins’ comment is quoted by the BBC in reference to Sky Sports.
The meeting of the 18th round of the English championship between Aston Villa and Chelsea from London ended with a strong victory for the Birmingham team with a score of 2:1.
“He changed tactics because Chelsea played man-marking, but he had an extra central defender when we played long balls. When I came on in the second half, he put Jadon Sancho and Morgan Rodgers on the wing and put Youri Tielemans in the No. 10 position, so we had an extra player. He’s a tactical genius,” Watkins said.
“Amazing victory. For me personally, to go on the pitch and score two goals is a fantastic feeling, but to continue that streak and come here to such a difficult place and beat Chelsea is just incredible,” he added.
