Here are the results from last week:
Chelsea versus Birmingham City - Daniel Sturridge might just have saved AVB's job with the late equalizer in the FA Cup, which keeps them alive in the competition as it enters the last 8.
Paris Saint-Germain versus Montpellier - Both teams were held to a 2-2 draw, thus keeping PSG with leadership of Ligue 1.
Barcelona versus Valencia - Lionel Messi was sensational, scoring four goals in the 5-1 Catalan romp, keeping them in step with the Los Blancos.
Global FC versus Stallion Gilligan's FC - It took a while, but the last team to pull off an undefeated season in the modern UFL era denies the then-leaders of the UFL that particular feat with a narrow 1-0 victory.
University of Santo Tomas versus Far Eastern University - A goalless draw enabled the Growling Tigers to set up a Finals rematch against the Fighting Maroons, leaving the Tamaraws just short.
Here are this weekend's games that you might just want to check out:
Arsenal vs Tottenham - The North London rivalry brewing with an Emmanuel Adebayor flavor, as the former Gunner is now a Spur. People remember his exuberance against Arsenal when he was with Manchester City.
Chelsea vs Bolton - This match is the highlighted match in the Premiership for AkTV. Villas-Boas really needs a win to stave off calls for his firing. They are expected to beat the Wanderers, who are mired in a relegation battle. The Blues are groping for any kind of positive form.
Milan vs Juventus - The Bianconeri are just a point behind the Rossoneri, but have the luck that AC Milan will be missing Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who is beginning his three-game suspension.
Bayern Munich vs Schalke - This match is the highlighted match in the Bundesliga for AkTV. German contenders currently trailing the Borussias (Dortmund and M'Gladbach) in the standings, with both teams fresh from grueling European matches.
University of the Philippines versus University of Santo Tomas - The defending champions have a twice-to-beat edge, and the Growling Tigers will be missing a couple of players due to accumulated yellow cards. Odds are stacked against them, but you just never know.
