And the Johnstone's paint trophy of Europe moves to the last 16.....

Interesting announcement by UEFA today. Russian and Ukrainian clubs will be kept apart in the semi final draw (as to be fair they have been to this stage).

There are two Ukrainian clubs left, Dynamo Kiev and (former visitors to Elm Park) Dnipro - who if they both win will automatically face each other if Zenit also make the semis. If the final is a Ukraine V Russia final it will take place as scheduled in Warsaw.

Could be tasty

Sevilla through to the Europa semis again, looking for their fourth title since 2006

[RG30]

IN! for the final in Warsaw. Hoping it's Sevilla Napoli

Sevilla currently 3-2 up on Dnipro....With 9 mins left, our mate Carrico could be on for another E.League title. If Sevilla win it tonight, that is 4 times in the last 9 years. Europa League machines!

[Stranded]

And win it they did and through to the CL group stages too. Spain guaranteed 4 teams in the group stages with Valencia in a qualifier.

[Kitsondinho]

But apparently most Spainish teams are rubbish and would struggle in "The best league in the World." In all seriousness though, the success of the Spanish teams in the CL, EL, Super Cup, W.Cup and Euros over the last 10 years is remarkable.
1 WC
2 Euros
4 CLs
6 ELs
6 Super Cups.
In that time we can boast
3 CLs and a fair few runners up in CL and EL....
Now obviously the club teams haven't been soley made up of Spanish players, but I'm sure those who do play for the Spanish national team have been helped by the above experiences.

Liverpool v Manchester United

Another easy game for Utd. If they don't win that... etc.

[stealthpapes]

Good to see two European footballing giants drawn together in the Europa league as Dortmund face Spurs.

Elsewhere Manchester United take on Liverpool.
