The Netflix of football, Champions League to deliver more drama: With fans barred, however, UEFA has put on a made-for-TV production and the all-star cast has truly delivered. sgevans reports

The only pity is that the four single-leg knockout games have been played out in empty stadiums in front of only a handful of team staff, medical officials, security guards and a few, very fortunate, journalists. The Germans face Olympique Lyonnais next face on Wednesday, after the French side pulled off the biggest upset by beating big-spending, pre-tournament favourites Manchester City 3-1 on Saturday.

PSG, with Brazilian Neymar and French World Cup winner Kylian Mbappe in attack, will on Tuesday face RB Leipzig, the Red Bull-owned club from Eastern Germany who have risen from the regional leagues to Europe’s elite in just 11 years and who knocked out Atletico Madrid in the quarters.
