The first eight in the round of 16 have finished their matches and confirmed a spot, or not, in the next round.
Manchester City as expected sliced through Copenhagen with an impressive 6-2 aggregate, joy and shame were on the faces of Man United fans as they questioned Cop’hagen’s zeal in knocking them out in the early group stages of the competition. It was the robot Halaand which continued its scoring streak as rival fans keep praying for its batteries to be low on power.
Real Madrid nearly got a huge upset as they drew 1-1 with RB Leipzig, it was the 2-1 goal aggregate that saved them from being knocked out. Bayern Munich handed Lazio a 3-0 defeat at home to counter its 1-0 advantage it had set in the previous fixture. The team with men who have a lot to prove such as Tuchel and Harry Kane are been operating with all engines firing to make sure they progress and win something as it is already late to win the domestic league. In the end Bayern won with a 3-1 goal aggregate.
Real Sociedad experienced Mbappe’s wrath first hand as Paris Saint German won 2-1 away with a 4-1 goal aggregate. Mbappe has already announced that this would be his last season at the French giant and what a farewell gift it would be if he wins the UEFA cup. The last eight teams will finish their matches and confirm a place in the quarter finals but one thing is for certain, Arsenal and Barcelona will definitely get knocked out.
