Barcelona aims to copy Milan's triumph
Published 4/21/2008 at FOXSports.com News for FOX SOCCER
Last season, it was AC Milan vs. the Premier League. The Italian club won.
This time, it's FC Barcelona's turn to take on English soccer in the Champions League with Manchester United, Liverpool and Chelsea all in the semifinals for the second season in a row.
If last season is any guide, bet on a Barcelona triumph when the final comes around in Moscow on May 21.
Although the current form and odds suggest the famous trophy will be headed for England, fate could send it to Spain.
