Second leg Wrap up 2

on april 13th we witnessed leg 2 of the quarter final wrap up. we saw Tottenham vs Real Madrid. in the previous leg Real took the game 4-0 and were home, now tottenham were at its ends attempting to fight a goliath score line just to get through. the game started even and stayed even through out the match until one blast from Cristiano Ronaldo was too hot to handle for tottenhams goalie Gomez. the ball seemed to slip out of his hands and roll in, sadly this was the only goal of the match but with the aggregate 4-0 in reals favor that only goal indicated that real was going through to the semi finals for the first time in quite a while. over in Italy we saw Shalke and Inter milan battle it out the game was very even similar to the first leg but the aggregate only proved to be fuel for inter as they pushed on trying to get back into the competition and defend their crown. it simply was not the day for them though, because german side Shalke had other plans. shalke came into this game as the underdog but at the end of the day the 2-1 scoreline saw them leave italy as top dog and headed to the semifinal of the Champions League. so in the semi finals Shalke will take on Manchester united and a couple miles away we have an all Spanish Semi Final with Barcelona taking on Real Madrid.
