No Premiere League side in Champion league Quater finals after 17 years




After 17 long years no English team could make it through to the quater finals of UCL. A unabashed stuff by Top four Premiere league sides in the UCL. For the first time since 1995/96 there are no English teams in the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals.




Chelsea secured their first victory of the Rafael Benitez era with a 6-1 win over Nordsjaelland, but they will have to content themselves with Europa League football as Juventus beat Shakhtar Donetsk to deny them a place in the knockout stages of the Champions League.





Manchester united eliminated by real in controversial fashion. Real Madrid came back from a goal down to beat Manchester United 2-1 in the second leg of their Champions League last 16 tie at Old Trafford on Tuesday night. United took the lead early in the second half through an own-goal from Sergio Ramos, but Madrid bounced back through strikes from Luka Modric and Cristiano Ronaldo to secure a 3-2 aggregate win and knocked the Red Devils out of UCL.


 Manchester City failed to secure a place in the Europa League as a 1-0   defeat at Borussia Dortmund saw them finish at the foot of Group D. Julian Schieber scored the only goal of the game early in the second period, tapping home at the back post, to conclude a dismal campaign for Roberto Mancini's men. Big-spending City, knocked out before kickoff and out in the group stage for the second season running, finished bottom of Group D with only three points and missed out on the comfort of qualifying for the Europa League. City set dismal records in UCL.


Arsenal was eliminated from the 2013 UEFA Champions League with a bitter finish after beating German giants Bayern Munich 2-0.
Gunners, having lost the opening leg 3-1 three weeks back, but the two-goal triumph was not enough for the Gunners to find their way into the last 16.
