Atletico Madrid had zero shots on target tonight and they are meant to be the best in Spain? La liga has regressed a lot.

Depending on the draw a good chance for two Premier league teams to reach the Champions league final again.

Bayern are way out in front. No English team will lay a glove on them.
Wouldn't be so sure about that
Same here. Bayern Munich aren't even way out in front in their own domestic league.

Incredible game, incredible performance from 10 man Porto to win that. Just kept going for it the whole night. Pepe, at 38, was utterly immense for a team that conceded 3 times.

As bad as the wall was Szczesny should have done better.

Seen it time and time again but the pen Porto won should not be a pen, they shouldn't be given; Thought the ref was very poor all night.

Listening to 'Fletch' and 'Sav' was very painful. Thankfully the game made up for it.

Went to bed when Juve "drew" in the second period of extra time, Porto were out on their feet.

I thought away goals didn't count in extra time but there you go.

What about the one not given in extra time when Cuadrado handled it?

Mike Tyson

Looking at the Juventus line up, that's a poor team. Fair play to Porto, will probably get City, Bayern or PSG in the next round as their reward lol.

Pirlo bound to be under pressure now especially given their league position??

That was the best game of soccer I have watched in quite a while. The pace and skill and commitment was outstanding and it makes the PL look like a second rate competition.

Is the premier league not widely accepted as being behind the champions league in terms of quality? It stands to reason that the competition with all the best teams in Europe will be of higher quality than the competition with all the best teams in England.

The first half of the the game last night was crap lads, admittedly when Chiesa scored a game took place thereafter.

Knockout stage of the CL is the best football about IMO. The groups I could take or leave.

Eventful night for Messi so far, from a wonder strike to a missed penalty.

Manchester City, Liverpool and Chelsea will all likely knock Porto out if drawn against them in the Quarter finals.
