Jurgen Klopp: Liverpool are back where they belong after Champions League win

Then there were eight!

The Champions League quarter-finals are upon us with no lead after the first leg seemingly safe.

Juventus and Manchester United came back from 2-0 deficits, while Ajax went to the three-time defending champions' home and stunned Real Madrid to leave them with a massive rebuilding project this summer following Zinedine Zidane's return.

Lionel Messi continues to mesmerise with Barcelona, while Manchester City may finally break through in Europe, given the ease in which they smashed Schalke.

Liverpool are on track to return to the final, seemingly as a much more rounded side. Spurs remain a threat and Porto are the outsiders at this stage.

The biggest competition in club football is now fast approaching the final in Madrid - check out the power rankings entering the quarter-finals.
