Champions League Spiel: Bayern Munich and Manchester City Advance to Quarterfinals
Bayern Munich Dominates PSG
Bayern Munich secured their spot in the Champions League quarterfinals with a resounding 1-0 victory over Paris Saint-Germain in the second leg of their last-16 tie. Kingsley Coman's second-half goal proved to be the difference, as Bayern held firm to their 1-0 aggregate lead from the first leg.
The German champions controlled possession and created the better chances throughout the match. PSG struggled to find their rhythm and were unable to break down Bayern's resolute defense. The result marks another disappointing European campaign for the French giants, who have yet to win the Champions League despite their significant financial investment.
Manchester City Edges Past Sporting CP
Manchester City also progressed to the quarterfinals after a hard-fought 0-0 draw with Sporting CP. The English champions had won the first leg 5-0, so the tie was effectively over before the second leg even began.
Sporting CP defended valiantly but were unable to find a goal that would have forced extra time. Manchester City controlled the match but were unable to add to their aggregate lead. The result extends their unbeaten run in all competitions to 12 matches.
Quarterfinal Draw Set for Friday
The draw for the Champions League quarterfinals will take place on Friday, March 17. Bayern Munich and Manchester City will be joined by the other seven quarterfinalists: Liverpool, Real Madrid, Chelsea, Juventus, Barcelona, and Villarreal.
