The first leg of the knockout play-offs is over without big surprises. The second leg will be held next week, which will be the end of our pool.
Results
The matches chosen for our predictions were:
Man City 2-3 Real Madrid
Celtic 1-2 Bayern Munich
Sporting Lisbon 0-3 Borussia Dortmund
Brest 0-3 PSG
Feyenoord 1-0 Milan
Brugge 2-1 Atalanta
Also, the other two matches of this round ended with the following results:
- Juventus 2-1 PSV
- Monaco 0-1 Benfica
Real Madrid beat Man City on Tuesday, playing a great match where they have plenty of missed opportunities. Just in the very last minute, Bellingham scored the goal which gave the victory. It looks like a huge task for the Citizens to come back at the Bernabeu next week, though it will be a great match to watch.
Borussia and PSG have almost sealed their spot in the next round, which Bayern getting a good result in Scotland and Benfica also achieving a nice advantage against Monaco. Italian sides, Milan and Atalanta, will have to win next week at home if they want to be in the next round.
