Champions League

MANCHESTER, UNITED KINGDOM (AFP) - Manchester City strolled into the Champions League quarter-finals for the fifth consecutive season with a 5-0 aggregate ...

City are on course for a fourth Premier League title in five seasons, but the Champions League has so far remained out of reach despite the billions invested by the club’s Abu Dhabi owners. Mahrez, introduced at the break, ran into the box and slid the ball into the Brazilian on the left. All the hard work for the English champions was done in the Portuguese capital three weeks ago.

After being 2-0 down on aggregate, a 12-minute hat-trick by Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema saw PSG bundled out of the UCL yet again.

It's a shame." "The comeback came due to a matter of mental strength. I know how difficult it is." It was very hard, but this is a Champions League match and we are Real Madrid," Benzema told reporters. "It's a disgrace that in 2022 a goal like that stands, it was a clear foul by Benzema on the goalkeeper," Pochettino told a news conference. When we pressure like that, we can beat anyone.

Fernandinho has been shortlisted for the Champions League's Player of the Week award following his display in Manchester City's goalless draw with Sporting.

Pep Guardiola says Manchester City do not fear drawing a Premier League side in the quarterfinals of the Champions League.

They will be joined by four teams from United, Atletico Madrid, Chelsea, Lille, Juventus, Villarreal, Benfica and Ajax when the final last-16 ties are completed next week. It's an honour as important teams are out." "We are in the last eight and we'll prepare well and next Friday we'll see the draw.

Kylian Mbappe scored twice over both legs of Paris Saint-Germain's UEFA Champions League round of 16 tie with Real Madrid and it was still not enough to ...

Will the necessary changes be made to aid UCL success, though? Such is Mbappe's unique position in the game (and perhaps in the future of Real Madrid) that he was even afforded a pre-game ovation. The only solution is a deep cleanse. This latest European embarrassment spelled out that the Ligue 1 leaders are still well short of being ready to win the Champions League. Pochettino's time in charge has been an utter failure and Mbappe will recognize this more than most given that the Argentine has overseen the final 18 months of his stay in Paris and put paid to his hopes of winning the first Champions League title for the club. Unlikely. PSG's problems appear to be rooted away from the pitch where they boast arguably as complete a squad as any of their UCL rivals.
