After Galatasaray versus Juventus with seven goals, this Tuesday (17th) featured three more games for the first leg of the Champions League round of 16 playoffs.
Including the most anticipated clash: the reunion between Benfica and Real Madrid after Trubin's historic goal.
Which was marred by an alleged case of racism against Vini Jr.
There was also the current French champion facing Monaco and Dortmund against Atalanta.
Check out a summary of the matches below.
🇫🇷 Monaco 2 x 3 PSG 🇫🇷
There was plenty of excitement in the Principality already during the first half.
Against a distracted PSG, Monaco took a good lead with two goals from Balogun (2' and 18').
Vitinha had the chance to reduce the deficit from a penalty, but Köhn was better.
However, PSG reacted before the break thanks to Doué - who had just come on - and Hakimi capitalizing on the rebound from the number 14's shot.
Monaco got into trouble early in the second half after Golovin's tackle on Vitinha turned into a red card following VAR intervention.
And they achieved the comeback thanks to Doué's prominence (67').
PSG had space and pressed hard in search of the fourth.
They didn't succeed, but celebrated a great result.
🇩🇪 Dortmund 2 x 0 Atalanta 🇮🇹
The match started 15 minutes late due to the BVB delegation's delayed arrival at Signal Iduna Park.
Dortmund took the lead just three minutes in after another assist from Ryerson to Guirassy.
Atalanta didn't feel the "blow" and tried to react. But without great chances.
BVB was lethal once again in the first half.
A lethal counterattack and a pass from Guirassy for Beier to score (44').
The second half saw Dea trying to reduce their deficit.
But they didn't succeed. BVB controlled the actions, didn't even threaten the opponent's goal, and later celebrated a good advantage.

🇵🇹 Benfica 0 x 1 Real Madrid 🇪🇸
It was the first Madrid victory over Benfica away from home in UCL history.
The first big chance was from Aursnes, forcing Courtois to work.
Real grew in production as the minutes passed. And made Trubin work. He made at least two great saves.
Arbeloa's team went into the break better against a Benfica struggling without the ball.
Real opened the scoring against Benfica five minutes into the second half.
Vini Jr. scored a great goal after getting past Dedic and sending it into Trubin's left corner.
The Brazilian celebrated with a little "samba" in front of one of the corner flags.
Which earned him a yellow card for possible "disrespect."
Such celebration left many Benfica players dissatisfied.
And fans started throwing various objects towards the number 7.
Subsequently, Vini Jr. reported being the target of racist insults.
And the anti-racism protocol was activated.
The match was halted for a few minutes, with a conversation between Vini and Mourinho. But it resumed after about ten minutes.
Benfica tried to press.
But the equalizer didn't come. Real heads to Santiago Bernabeu with an advantage.
