Only eight clubs remain in the Champions League, and last week, they played the first leg of the quarterfinals. The matches were thrilling, with some surprising developments and a bit of controversy. Some teams put themselves in good positions, while others face challenges in the upcoming games.
Tuesday’s Matchups
The first quarterfinals took place on Tuesday, with one match in Spain and the other in Portugal. The game in Spain featured Real Madrid against Bayern Munich, where Bayern came in as favorites. They secured a 2-1 victory, with only a late goal from Luis Díaz in the first half. After halftime, Harry Kane helped Bayern extend their lead. Although Kylian Mbappé found the net for Real Madrid in the 71st minute, it wasn’t enough to equalize.
