We are coming to the back end of the Champions League now. There are just four clubs left in the 2020-21 edition.
The winners of PSG v Man City and Real Madrid v Chelsea will face off in the Champions League final at the Ataturk Olympic stadium in Istanbul on 29th May.
The Parisians qualified on away goals against Bayern Munich. Pochettino's men won 2-3 in Germany and were then beaten 0-1 at home.
Chelsea faced Porto over two legs at Sevilla's Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan stadium. The Premier League side won the first leg 0-2 and despite losing the second game 0-1 to a sensational overhead kick by Mehdi Taremi, they went through 2-1 on aggregate.
Man City had to fight hard to knock out Borussia Dortmund. Man City won the home game 2-1, but Dortmund were going through on away goals when Jude Bellingham put Dortmund 1-0 up in the return leg in Germany. A Mahrez penalty and a Phil Foden screamer meant Man City won 1-2 on the night to progress 4-2 on aggregate.
Lastly, Real Madrid, a club with lots of Champions League pedigree, won the first leg at home 3-1. Liverpool tried their very best in the second leg at Anfield, but a rock solid defence and some great Courtois saves meant the match ended goalless. Madrid went through 3-1 on aggregate.
The first legs will take place on 27th and 28th April while the English teams will host the returns on 3rd and 4th May.
