Over the past month or so, the Champions League continued with the round of 16. As a reminder, the winner of the tie is determined by the aggregate score of the two legs. If the aggregate score is tied after the second leg, extra time and, if needed, penalties are used to determine the winner. Here were all eight ties:

Club Brugge vs Benfica

AC Milan vs Tottenham Hotspur

Borussia Dortmund vs Chelsea

Paris Saint Germain (PSG) vs Bayern Munich

Inter Milan vs Porto

Eintracht Frankfurt vs Napoli

RB Leipzig vs Manchester City

Liverpool vs Real Madrid

In the Brugge vs Benfica tie, Benfica stormed to a 2-0 victory in the first leg, setting themselves up for a good chance to advance to the quarter finals. And in the second leg, Benfica didn’t rest on their laurels and put Brugge to the sword, scoring five more goals in a 5-1 thrashing of Brugge to punch their ticket to the quarter finals with a 7-1 aggregate score.

For the Milan Tottenham tie, it was a clash of seven-time champion league winners against a team that has never won it. In the first leg, Milan got off to a dream start and scored within seven minutes, courtesy of Brahim Diaz. Both teams then had multiple chances but were unable to convert any of them. Milan were able to hold onto the win and take the 1-0 lead into the second leg. In the second leg, Tottenham were hunting for the goal to level the score on aggregate. However, the Milan defense stood firm and after 90 minutes, the second leg ended 0-0, meaning Milan passed on the slim 1-0 aggregate.

For the Dortmund vs Chelsea tie, the first leg saw both teams pressing on the attack. Both teams had excellent chances but to no avail. However in the 63rd minute, Karim Adeyemi collected the ball on his side of the field and scored a wonderful solo goal to give Dortmund the lead. That goal was the difference in the first leg with Dortmund taking a 1-0 lead to the second leg. In the second leg, Chelsea pushed for the equalizer and eventually found it courtesy of Raheem Sterling in the 43rd minute. Shortly after halftime, Chelsea were given a penalty and Kai Havertz stood up to take it. Havertz’s penalty was saved but it was retaken due to encroachment, with Havertz slotting the retake into the back of the net to knock Dortmund out 2-1 on aggregate to advance to the quarter finals.

In the PSG Bayern leg, it was a feisty affair between these two European giants. However, Bayern scored the lone goal in the first leg courtesy of Kingsley Coman. Coman’s goal against his former club gave Bayern a 1-0 lead heading into the second leg. In the second leg, PSG had a golden chance to level the score but were denied by a goal line clearance. Bayern then scored two goals in the 61st and 89th minutes to win the match 2-0 and advance to the quarterfinals 3-0 on aggregate.

As for the other Milan team, Inter faced off against Porto. The first leg saw both teams trying to break through but lacked that final touch to put it in the back of the net.
