PSG eliminate Liverpool from Champions League after shootout; Inter, Bayern Munich, Barcelona also advance

In Tuesday's early match Barcelona dominated Benfica to become the first team to advance to the quarterfinals

Barcelona, Bayern Munich Paris Saint-Germain and Inter have all booked their spots in the Champions League quarterfinals. PSG needed a penalty shootout and two saves from Gianluigi Donnarumma were enough to push them through to the quarters. It was level 1-1 on aggregate after regulation thanks to a goal from Ousmane Dembele but even with PSG being away from home at Anfield they didn't have an issue with the pressure that they faced. From Vitinha's stutter-step take to beat Alisson to Desire Doue's eventual winning penalty it was a clinique in penalties form Luis Enrique's team putting a dent in Liverpool's magical season to date.

With Raphinha grabbing a brace and Lamine Yamal becoming the youngest player ever to score and assist in the same Champions League game at 17 years and 241 days old, all Hansi Flick needed was a half to put this tie out of reach. Barcelona is a contender to win the entire tournament and for good reason after their strong performance versus Benfica. Harry Kane became the first English player to score 10 goals in a Champions League season with a goal and an assist in Bayern Munich's 2-0 victory over Bayer Leverkusen while Inter took care of business in a 2-1 victory over Feyenoord.

[Mar 11, 2025 at 6:38 pm ET · Chuck Booth]

Vitinha finishes well

PSG nails their first penalty with a confident take.

[Mar 11, 2025 at 6:37 pm ET · Chuck Booth]

PSG to take first

It's the first ever Champions League shootout for them as Alission gets ready.

[Mar 11, 2025 at 6:34 pm ET · Chuck Booth]

We're on to penalties

There were chances for both sides to win the match but now it'll be decided from the spot with two top goalkeepers in net.

[Mar 11, 2025 at 6:33 pm ET · Chuck Booth]

Ramos on for the final seconds

This could be quite something if he slips up during penalties.

[Mar 11, 2025 at 6:26 pm ET · Chuck Booth]

No penalty?

Mohamed Salah went down in the box following a challenge from PSG in the box but there wasn't enough contact to draw a penalty.

[Mar 11, 2025 at 6:21 pm ET · Chuck Booth]

Almost from Dembele

Alisson is again there when needed which is so impressive considering Dembele's shooting skill. You never know where he'll strike the ball from but you don't get more in form than Alisson currently.

[Mar 11, 2025 at 6:19 pm ET · Chuck Booth]

One eye on penalties

Harvey Elliott has now entered for Szoboszlai but neither team will want to lose this with only 13 minutes between them and a shootout. 

[Mar 11, 2025 at 6:13 pm ET · Chuck Booth]

No shots on target yet

Both teams have had chances in extra time but neither keeper has been tested so far. Liverpool will earn a corner but Nuno Mendes is in pain which could be a blow after he's had a massive game. 

[Mar 11, 2025 at 6:01 pm ET · Chuck Booth]

Liverpool 0, PSG 1 (1-1)

[Mar 11, 2025 at 6:01 pm ET · Chuck Booth]

Two changes for extra time 

Curtis Jones is on for Alexis Mac Allister and Warren Zaire-Emery has entered for Fabian Ruiz.

[Mar 11, 2025 at 5:53 pm ET · Chuck Booth]

We're on to extra time at Anfield

Both teams have secured 1-0 victories away from home and with nothing to separate them, there will be at least 30 minutes more of soccer to come. Both teams have only made two changes so far so there will be plenty of space for more in extra time.

[Mar 11, 2025 at 5:50 pm ET · Chuck Booth]

A yellow for Mac Allister

If Liverpool advances, he'll be suspended for their next match but the foul was needed to stop Dembele from scoring so he'll be okay with that.

[Mar 11, 2025 at 5:43 pm ET · Chuck Booth]

Six minutes remain 

Liverpool's throwing everything but the kitchen sink forward in this match as it continues. No one wants extra time but with PSG having made fewer changes, they'll at least have more potential for fresh legs if we get there.

[Mar 11, 2025 at 5:33 pm ET · Chuck Booth]

Changes for Liverpool

Darwin Nunez and Jarell Quansah have entered the match for Diogo Jota and Trent Alexander-Arnold as Liverpool looks to avoid extra time in this clash. It's tense at Anfield. 

[Mar 11, 2025 at 5:31 pm ET · Chuck Booth]

GOAL! Bayer Leverkusen 0, Bayern Munich 2

Aggregate score: Bayer Leverkusen 0, Bayern Munich 5

Harry Kane became the provider as Leverkusen's defense collapsed allowing Alphonso Davies to score. This was already out of reach but now it's ugly. 

[Mar 11, 2025 at 5:24 pm ET · Chuck Booth]

It's a monumental goal for Harry Kane

With his finish, Kane has become the first English player to score 10 goals in one Champions League season. 

[Mar 11, 2025 at 5:16 pm ET · Chuck Booth]

GOAL! Inter 2, Feyenoord 1

Aggregate score: Inter 4, Feyenoord 1

Initially, a free kick was given but after a review, the Feyenoord foul was judged to be in the box. Hakan Calhanoglu wouldn't miss his chance and Inter restored their aggregate lead. 

[Mar 11, 2025 at 5:11 pm ET · Chuck Booth]

GOAL! Bayer Leverkusen 0, Bayern Munich 1

Aggregate score: Bayer Leverkusen 0, Bayern Munich 4

This one is done and dusted with Harry Kane hitting the back of the net continuing his European dominance finishing off a Joshua Kimmich free kick.

[Mar 11, 2025 at 5:08 pm ET · Chuck Booth]

A coming suspension

After picking up a yellow card in the second half, if PSG advances to the quarter finals, they won't have Marquinhos available for the match.

[Mar 11, 2025 at 4:49 pm ET · Chuck Booth]

All matches are at the half

As things stand we're on track for extra time between Liverpool and PSG with Inter and Bayern Munich advancing. Can the second half of action change that?

[Mar 11, 2025 at 4:41 pm ET · Chuck Booth]

Penalty given in Milan 

Feyenoord has now cut the aggregate to two goals scoring only the second goal against Milan during their entire UCL run.

[Mar 11, 2025 at 4:35 pm ET · Chuck Booth]

No shortage of chances

This Liverpool match has been played at an absurd pace with 13 shots and four on target from both sides. So far PSG has the advantage with Liverpool unable to take their shots when they fall but this could flip quickly in a first half that feels like another goal is coming.

[Mar 11, 2025 at 4:14 pm ET · Chuck Booth]

GOAL! Liverpool 0, PSG 1

Aggregate score: Liverpool 1, PSG 1

This time it's Ousmane Dembele after an unfortunate intervention from Ibrahima Kounate allowed Dembele and PSG to go coast to coast and level this match on aggregate. This is getting tasty at Anfield. 

[Mar 11, 2025 at 4:11 pm ET · Chuck Booth]

GOAL! Inter 1, Feyenoord 0

Aggregate score: Inter 3, Feyenoord 0

It didn't take long for Inter to add an insurance goal via Marcus Thruam with quite a strike. Inter playing a natural fullback on the left is already playing dividends with Carlos Augusto getting the assist there.
