For the second consecutive year, a newcomer to the UEFA Champions League has reached the quarter-finals.  This time it’s Málaga CF’s turn, last season it was Apoel FC from Cyprus.  It’s been 10 years since Spain had three teams taking part in this stage of the competition; last time it was Real Madrid, FC Barcelona and Valencia CF.
