Paris Saint-Germain secured a place in the Champions League quarter-finals after eliminating Liverpool in a dramatic penalty shootout, winning 4-1.

Goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma played a key role in PSG’s victory, making crucial saves against Darwin Núñez and Curtis Jones.

Vitinha, Gonçalo Ramos, Ousmane Dembélé, and Désiré Doué successfully converted their penalties, keeping PSG’s hopes alive for a maiden Champions League title.

The tie had been evenly poised at 1-1 after PSG overturned their 1-0 first-leg defeat at home, with Dembélé finding the net in the 12th minute at Anfield.

Meanwhile, Bayern Munich, Barcelona, and Inter Milan also booked their spots in the last eight on Tuesday, with four more second-leg matches set to be played on Wednesday.

Bayern advanced comfortably after defeating Bayer Leverkusen 2-0, sealing a dominant 5-0 aggregate victory.

Harry Kane starred in the match, scoring a goal and assisting Alphonso Davies.

The six-time European champions now turn their focus to a quarter-final clash against Inter Milan.

Inter completed a 4-1 aggregate triumph over Feyenoord after securing a 2-1 home win, with goals from Marcus Thuram and Hakan Çalhanoğlu.

Barcelona also progressed with a 3-1 victory over Benfica, winning 4-1 on aggregate.

Seventeen-year-old Lamine Yamal made history by becoming the youngest player to both score and assist in a single Champions League match, while Raphinha netted twice to cap off Barcelona’s dominant display.
