Football Weekly Extra: Tactics, semis, and a bunch of Clásicos

Brace yourselves listeners for a very special edition of Football Weekly Extra as AC Jimbo is joined by two floating brains and one Barry Glendenning.

Yes, both Jonathan Wilson and Michael Cox are on board as we look back on all the action from the second legs of the Champions League quarter-finals. Tottenham were unable to overturn their first-leg deficit, while Fernando Torres endured another torrid night as Chelsea crashed out to Manchester United, who meet Schalke in the semi-finals.

Real Madrid and Barcelona will meet in the other semi - you might have heard that they'll contest 4 El Clásicos in 17 days - so Sid Lowe tells us what to expect.

Finally, we look forward to the Manchester derby in the FA Cup at the weekend, and doff our caps to Brighton and Crawley, who have both secured promotion in double-quick time.

Rafa Honigstein's here on Monday. Until then, please post your comments below - and if you want to get yourself a ticket to our live, end of season spectacular at the Emirates, head here.
