One key figure for every club post Champions League last eight ties with Bayern Munich prevailing

16 - Liverpool's involvement in the UEFA Champions League has ended against Paris Saint-Germain for the second successive season. Similar to the opening match, the Merseyside outfit suffered a 2-0 defeat on the evening, resulting in a 4-0 aggregate loss. Goals in the closing stages from Ousmane Dembele determined the outcome for the six-time champions, marking their first defeat in both legs of a UCL knockout tie in three years. The midweek fixture represented Liverpool's second defeat at Anfield in this competition this season. Their previous instance of multiple home defeats in a single European campaign dates back 16 years.

6 - Paris Saint-Germain aim to become the first team to defend the title in eight years, and they appear firmly on track. The Ligue 1 club faced few challenges across the matchup, securing victories in both encounters this time. Les Parisiens have advanced to this stage of the UCL for the third consecutive year, a notable achievement in modern times. In total, PSG will feature in a European Cup or Champions League semi-final for the sixth occasion, surpassing any other French top-flight team.

29 - Atletico Madrid maintain their stronghold over Barcelona in the UCL, eliminating them in the quarter-finals for the third occasion in three tries. Los Colchoneros suffered a 2-1 reversal before their supporters but clung on to progress 3-2 across the two games. This returns them to the semi-finals for the first time since the 2016/17 campaign, during which they exited in the last eight on three occasions. A home defeat in the knockout rounds remains uncommon for Atleti. Even rarer is that Wednesday's setback marked the first instance in 29 years where they lost a two-legged UCL tie at home despite finding the net.

3 - Barcelona endure further disappointment, now a full decade without claiming the UCL crown. Despite generating numerous opportunities over the pair of legs - including periods with a reduced squad in the encounters - they failed to overcome Atleti sufficiently. The Catalan club has been knocked out by Atleti in two separate tournaments this season, following their Copa del Rey semi-final exit as well. Notably, this represented only the third occasion where Blaugrana did not advance from a UCL tie despite victory in the away fixture.

23 - Returning to the semi-finals for the second straight year are Arsenal, who prevented Sporting CP from scoring at the Emirates to secure a 1-0 aggregate win via their late strike from the prior week. The North London side have reached the final four of the UCL in back-to-back seasons for the first time and seek to claim the trophy by late May. Thursdays scoreless stalemate concluded a sequence of 23 matches featuring at least one goal.

4 - Sporting's progress has halted, yet they can reflect positively on one of their finest UCL runs. After all, the Portuguese outfit had not reached this point since the turn of the millennium. Ultimately, their failure to penetrate a robust Arsenal backline sealed their fate in a closely contested tie. However, their difficulties in away knockout fixtures raise concerns, with now four such outings without a victory.

13 - The famed rivalry in the tournament added yet another thrilling instalment across the past week. On this occasion, Bayern Munich triumphed against Real Madrid. The German side netted twice late on to win 4-3 in the evening and 6-4 overall. This places them in a UCL semi-final for the second time within three years. In their 30th clash on Thursday, Bayern now hold 13 victories against the most successful club, levelling the record.

11 - Real Madrid must regroup after another quarter-final exit from the UCL. Eduardo Camavinga's bookings just eight minutes apart proved costly, with the midfielder's second caution four minutes from the end complicating matters greatly. They will pursue a record 16th triumph next season. The four goals shipped to Bayern represented the highest total against a German opponent in 11 years, matching Schalke's haul from a round of 16 encounter back then.
