For now, from me, Adam Hancock, and my colleague Patrick Keddie, goodbye!

Its all over in Turin and Juventus are out!

The home side went 3-0 up to bring the game back to 5-5 on aggregate, but they couldn’t complete the comeback as Galatasaray scored two goals in extra time to book their place in the next round.

An extraordinary Champions League tie.

Los Blancos have booked their place in the round of 16 after a 2-1 win over Benfica at the Bernabeu.

That looks to have sealed it for the Turkish giants.

Yilmaz has added a second goal for Galatasaray in extra time. Juventus lead 3-2 on the night but trail 5-7 on aggregate.

This evening started with a fantastic game in Italy as Atalanta overturned a 2-0 first-leg deficit against Borussia Dortmund.

Goals from Gianluca Scamacca, Davide Zappacosta and Mario Pasalic put Atalanta ahead on aggregate, but Dortmund levelled up the tie through Karim Adeyemi.

The game looked to be heading to extra time, but Lazar Samardzic scored from the spot in the 98th minute after Ramy Bensebaini was sent off for a foul.

Elsewhere and Paris Saint-Germain drew 2-2 with Monaco this evening, securing a 5-4 aggregate victory.

After scoring his first-ever Champions League goal, the French midfielder has been picked as the player of the match.

The UEFA Technical Observer Group said he “was involved in much of Madrid’s play” and was “good on and off the ball”.

This tie is throwing up more drama!

The Turkish side have pulled a goal back in extra time through Victor Osimhen. They may be losing 3-1 on the night, but now lead 6-5 on aggregate.

It’s now half-time in extra time.

The Champions League draw will take place on Friday morning at 11:00 GMT.

Real Madrid have a rough idea of who their next opponents will be – either another Portuguese side, Sporting Lisbon or English Premier League side Manchester City.

Los Blancos have already faced Pep Guardiola’s side this season, losing 2-1 at the Bernabeu in December.

It looked like it was going to be an awkward night for Los Blancos after Benfica took the lead through Silva in the first half.

But the Portuguese side could only hold on to their advantage for three minutes before Tchouameni levelled for Madrid.

Despite that goal, the visitors continued to carve open the Madrid defence, and they had a number of opportunities to level up the tie.

It was much the same story in the second half, with Benfica well on top before Vinicius Junior settled matters.

Juventus and Galatasaray will play for another 30 minutes with their tie level at 5-5.

The Italian side have fought back and lead 3-0 on the night.

Given what happened in the first leg of this tie, it is fitting that Vinicius Junior scored the winning goal of the night.

It came at a crucial moment for Real Madrid, with Benfica knocking on the door to try to level the tie.

The Brazilian danced with the corner flag in celebration – but this time, the focus was all about his football.

The lengthy period of stoppage time is over and Real Madrid have confirmed their place in the last 16.

The hosts were far from their best but have found a way past Benfica.
