Galatasaray beats Liverpool: A night of big wins and missed opportunities in the Champions League

The first matches of the round of 16 brought fans unexpected moments and numerous goals. While a narrow victory was celebrated in Istanbul, in Bergamo and Madrid, the favorites almost secured their place in the next round without waiting for the return legs. The biggest disappointments of the night were London’s Tottenham, who conceded five goals against Atletico, and Atalanta, who couldn't withstand the power of Bayern Munich at home.
