Real Madrid To Face Lyon In CL Knock Out Phase

Real Madrid will get their chance to make revenge on Lyon in February and March 2011, in Champions League knock-out phase. Last season, Lyon succeeded in elimination Los Blancos at the 16 round, with 1-1 and 1-0.

But although Real Madrid have never beaten the French club, Olympique Lyonnais president Jean-Michel Aulas admitted that if there was a team he wanted to avoid, then it was Real Madrid.

"This is the draw that I feared most because revenge should have given us the chance to meet Bayern Munich," he said through the club’s official website. "Real will have the desire to erase the elimination of last year with new ways and new ambitions."

This match won't be easy for the Whites, since from 6 all time meetings, Los Blancos lost 3 times, and the other 3 only able to made it draw.
