On Wednesday night, it became clear that the strongest teams from Spain and Germany will battle in the semi-finals of the UEFA Champions League.

Aside from the drawing ceremony of the Madrid "Real" and Dortmund "Borussia" clubs, which will take place on Friday at 13:00 Lithuanian time in the Swiss city of Nyon, representatives of Barcelona and Munich's Bayern teams will also eagerly await the event.
