Champions League: Man City and Atletico progress

Manchester City are into the quarter-finals of the Champions League for the first time. A 0-0 draw in the second leg of their tie with Dynamo Kiev secured a 3-1 aggregate win. In a lethargic performance, Jesus Navas came closest to breaking the deadlock on the night, hitting the post with a low drive. A concern for City will be the early withdrawals of centre-backs Vincent Kompany and Nicolas Otamendi to injury. Meanwhile, Atletico Madrid progressed to the last-eight after beating PSV Eindhoven on penalties, after the tie ended goalless. The first 14 attempts were all converted, before Luciano Narsingh hit the bar for the Dutch champions, allowing Juanfran to score the winning spot-kick for the hosts.
