Liverpool utterly failed to pull any miracle as Real Madrid chucked out the struggling English team to return to the Champions League quarterfinal with a 1-0 win in the second leg at the Santiago Bernabeu.

The reigning champions who entered the game with a 5-2 advantage dominated Jurgen Klopp's men throughout who have had a bitterly disappointing season. 

With a 78th-minute strike, Karim Benzema sealed a distinctly expected result as the Spanish club will now aim to lift the trophy for the 15th time.

Meanwhile, Napoli handed Eintracht Frankfurt a 3-0 loss in the second leg to advance to the next round with a 5-0 aggregate at Diego Armando Maradona Stadium. While Victor Osimhen found the net twice, Piotr Zelinski too scored from the penalty spot for Luciano Spalletti to help the Italian side reach the Champions League quarterfinals for the first time in its history.
