Aberdeen boss Jimmy Calderwood has admitted that his players are over the moon at having been drawn against Bayern Munich in the last 32 of the UEFA Cup.
The Dons face the tournament favourites after securing their passage from the group stages with a stunning 4-0 win FC Copenhagen and Calderwood's charges are excited by that prospect.
He commented: "It's not a fear thing, you have got to respect them, they are a massive name in European football.
"It's a wonderful challenge for the lads. When the draw was made the lads were jumping up and down, so they were well pleased.
"I know it's two months away, Bayern, but it really can't come quickly enough."
