Santos FC v Lyon
Very tough away trip for us! But you're never going to get an easy game if you're a division 3 team still in the competition at this stage!
On the other hand we have beaten Liverpool, Real Madrid, Barcelona and Porto in the last two seasons FA Cups and only lost 1-0 to Bayern in the final last year....so i'd like to think Santos are wary of this potential banana skin!
As we always do, we will go out to win the game regardless of the quality of the opposition. Looking forward to locking horns with Santos for the first time.

Very nice draw formus at this stage of the cup, a home draw is all I ever ask for but to get that against arguably the outsider of the cup is a bonus. However it's the cup so we wont be taking a team we havent played in many years lightly.
