Atletico Madrid, the third Spanish team in this season’s UCL quarters, beat Inter Milan on penalties.
Six-time champion Bayern Munich, despite its poor domestic performance, made a thrilling comeback win against Lazio to qualify 3-1 on aggregate.
Paris Saint-Germain beat Real Sociedad 4-1 on aggregate, winning both legs.
Arsenal, which qualified for the UCL quarterfinals for the first time since the 2009-10 season, needed a penalty shootout to beat Porto after the aggregate score remained 1-1 after both the legs.
Borussia Dortmund drew 1-1 against PSV in the first-leg but won the next one 2-0 to reach the last eight.
