In the early morning of March 13 (Vietnam time), the round of 16 of the 2024-2025 Champions League has ended, finding the last teams to qualify for the quarter-finals.
Real Madrid defeated their opponent Atletico Madrid in a penalty shootout to continue their journey to defend the championship. They will face Arsenal in the quarter-finals.
PSG's reward after eliminating Liverpool is to face Aston Villa. The winning team will meet Arsenal or Madrid in the semi-finals.
The exclusion of Brugge, PSV, Benfica and Feyenoord means that the tournament will only have representatives from the top 5 European national championships. No team other than England, Spain, Germany, Italy or France have reached the Champions League final since Porto were led by Jose Mourinho in 2004.
The first leg of the quarter-finals will take place on April 8-9 and the return matches will take place on April 15-16.
Each quarterfinal team will receive 12.5 million euros (13.6 million USD). The semi-finalists will be paid an additional 15 million euros ($16.3 million).
