THE CHAMPIONS!<\/p>\n
We are back this week with some UEFA Champions League<\/a> ties as we finally confirm all the teams that will qualify for the round of 16 via the knockout round playoffs.<\/p>\n In our games that kicked off simultaneously, we saw tons of drama (17 goals and three red cards in four games), but the main headlines were that Real Madrid<\/a> did enough to eliminate Benfica<\/a> at the Santiago Bernab\u00e9u 3-1 on aggregate, while in an all-French affair, defending champions Paris Saint-Germain<\/a> secured their spot as they eliminated AS Monaco<\/a> 5-4 on aggregate.<\/p>\n Elsewhere, Juventus<\/a> looked to reverse a 5-2 deficit as they host Galatasaray<\/a>, and they did so by sending the game into extra time with the aggregate score level at 5-5, but the Turkish team scored twice in extra time to book their ticket to the next round.<\/p>\n Enjoy all that happened from Wednesday’s matches.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"THE CHAMPIONS!
