The quest for Champions League glory continues for Manchester City who booked their place in the quarter-final draw with a 7-0 romp over RB Leipzig on Tuesday night.

The illustrious European title has proved impossible to capture for Pep Guardiola during his seven-year tenure at the Etihad Stadium, having lifted the trophy twice at Barcelona previously.

This year, the Cityzens look the side to beat with Erling Haaland proving a tour-de-force up front after his five goals against Leipzig last night.

Whilst PSG and Borussia Dortmund bowed out in the last-16, all four sides who have won the Champions League since 2019 remain in the draw. Chelsea overcame recent shaky form to see off Dortmund whilst Bayern Munich beat PSG.

Elsewhere, Liverpool will have to overturn a three-goal deficit at the Bernabeu on Wednesday night to comeback against Real Madrid.

Star man Erling Haaland has made no secret of the side's ambitions this year. Speaking after Tuesday's win, he told CBS: "It’s a difficult question. I could easily make headlines with this answer. Of course, the club want to win the Champions League. They’ve won four out of the last five Premier League titles. They didn’t bring me in to win the Premier League because they already know how to win it. So, you can read between the lines.

"I’m here to try to help the club develop even more and to win the Champions League for the first time.

"I knew I was going to score goals because last season, how many did they score? Probably 100. When I saw them without a striker and they were crossing the ball in, I was like ‘ah, I’d love to be there!”

"I knew I would score a lot of goals. There is so much potential in this team and I think we can improve a lot. It’s an easy thing to say but I could’ve scored more goals. I missed a lot of chances. But the chances keep scoring."
