Some surprise results!
Champions League Round of 16 Leg 1
Napoli 1 vs. 1 Barcelona
Mertens scored a brilliant goal in the 30th minute while Griezmann equalised for Barcelona in the 57th minute. Vidal was sent off for Barcelona in the 89th minute. Barcelona do well to get a crucial away goal but as usual their qualification will rely on Messi showing up for the 2nd leg. All Napoli need to do is score a goal or more to make the tie interesting. Barcelona are capable of losing while Napoli have the quality up front to cause problems.
Olympique Lyonnais 1 vs. 0 Juventus
Tousart scored the solitary goal in the 31st minute as Lyon got a big win at home against Juventus. Juventus failed to get a shot on target and the players, fans and Sarri were all left frustrated. Juventus should still comeback in the 2nd leg and reach the next round because Ronaldo were savour this moment. Lyon have a chance but Juventus are too good of a side not to get through.
Real Madrid 1 vs. 2 Man City
A big big win for Man City and a scary prospect for Uefa as City beat Real at the Bernabeu to give Zidane his first defeat in the knockout stages while becoming only the 3rd English team to win at the Bernabeu. Isco scored in the 60th minute to give Real the lead but Jesus scored in the 78th minute to equalise. De Bruyne scored the winning penalty in the 83rd minute to give Pep and the fans a positive result. Uefa will be praying that Real get a comeback in Manchester because if the team that is banned from future Uefa competitions beats one of the favourites then its bad press. City in the driving seat but Real still in it.
Europa League Round of 32 Leg 2
Some surprising dropouts at this stage of the Europa League as the winners head into the Round of 16.
