Last Friday, on the 16th March, the draw for the Champions League announced a clash between Bayern Munich and Sevilla, both of whom are aiming to progress to the semi-finals.
Nowitzki, the basketball star, is a loyal fan of the Bavarian giants. This is what he said about the Sevilla draw.
''Sevilla are a very good team, but I think the draw could have been worse, we were lucky,'' said the 'Mavericks' power forward.
Nowitzki added that ''Also, with the bonus of playing the first-leg away from home, which is always good, right now all the teams that remain are a threat,'' he concluded.
