The excitement of the Champions League round of 16, Europe’s number 1 soccer organization, has begun. At the end of the two games played, the first teams to reach the quarterfinals were announced.
In the top-scoring game of the night, Portuguese giants Benfica destroyed Club Brugge, which they beat 2-0 in Belgium, in front of their fans!
In the match led by our FIFA licensed referee Halil Umut Meler, Benfica led 1-0 with Silva at minute 38, and Ramos determined the result of the first half in the breaks: 2-0. The young Portuguese striker came back on stage at minute 57, and Joao Mario made it 4-0 from a penalty at minute 71.

CHELSEA ELIMINATES DORTMUND
Another game in the evening was that the Borussia Dortmund team bus was late at the stadium due to traffic around the stadium, and the game started 10 minutes late.
Starting the second leg at Stamford Bridge 1-0 behind, Chelsea won the field 2-0 and managed to reach the quarterfinals of the Champions League after a poor season.
The British giant, who closed the circuit ahead with Sterling’s goal in minute 44, won a penalty in minute 49. After Wolf’s manual intervention, the referee, who was monitoring the position with a VAR warning, showed the point white.
As Havertz aimed for the penalty post, the shot was retaken after Dortmund players entered the penalty area early during the shot, following a VAR warning.
Havertz sent the ball into the net in the 53rd minute, giving Chelsea a 2-0 lead.
In the remaining minutes, Dortmund’s pressure to score did not pay off, and the British giant managed to get through the tour.
The excitement in the Champions League will continue with the Bayern Munich-PSG and Tottenham-Milan matches tonight.
