Bayern Munich 1-3 Liverpool:
Sadio Mane brace fires Jurgen Klopp's side into Champions League quarter-finals. ![]() Liverpool have qualified for the quarter-finals of the Champions League following a 3-1 win away to Bayern Munich in the second leg of their last-16 tie. The match, which followed a goalless first leg, was finely balanced after Joel Matip's own goal had cancelled out Sadio Mane's brilliant opener. But Virgil van Dijk, so influential in defence since his £75million signing, proved how valuable he can be at the other end with a towering far-post header for his third goal in four matches - more than he had scored in his previous 55 appearances. It broke Bayern's resistance and, as they went chasing the two goals they needed for victory, they were picked off with Mane's late diving header ending a run of five Champions League defeats away from Anfield. The leadership of Van Dijk, suspended for the Anfield tie, was critical as he and Matip kept the competition's leading scorer Robert Lewandowski at arm's length.
