The last day of Champions League Round of 16 featured four world-renowned teams. Arsenal traveled to FC Barcelona hoping to make up a 2-0 aggregate deficit, while Bayern Munich and Juventus were tied at two.
Poor Cristiano Ronaldo just can't get a cup of tea. The Portuguese phenom was only trying to have a nice calming cup of chamomile but then, well, just watch.
We wouldn't blame you for thinking that Lionel Messi has broken every record worth breaking at Barcelona. He has smashed a lot of them. Most goals for Barcelona in La Liga, most goals for Barcelona in the Champions League, most goals in a calendar year and so on and so forth.
Lionel Messi became the first player to score 20+ goals in 8 successive La Liga seasons today.

Manchester City, Dynamo Kiev, Atletico Madrid and PSV Eindhoven played their second legs in the Champions League Round of 16. With a 3-1 aggregate, Manchester City played comfortably and tied Kiev 0 - 0 at the Ethiad. While down in Madrid, Atletico and PSV played to a 0 - 0 draw. With aggregate being tied 0 - 0, extra time was needed and still not a goal was scored. The PK shootout was nerve racking as each team traded PKs. On the 8th PK for PSV, Luciano Narsingh hit the crossbar giving Atletico the chance to win with a converted PK.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic endorses a vitamin drink in Sweden called Vitamin Well. They're doing an advertising campaign right now that featurez Zlatan interacting with terrified, awkward everyday people (or actors pretending to be terrified, awkward people, whatever).
The first commercial in the series had Zlatan as a terrifying job interviewer. The newest one has Zlatan terrorizing a bike messenger. This should be good.
Leicester City continue their Premier League dominance with a 1 - 0 win over Newcastle United. There was a lot of anticipation for this match up as this was Rafa Benitez's first match as manager for Newcastle. Unfortunately it did not go his way as Shinji Okazaki scored a wonderful bicycle kick to take a 1 - 0 lead in the 25th minute. The victory put Leicester City 5 points clear of 2nd place Tottenham. With only 8 matches left in the 2015 - 2016 EPL season for Leicester City, can they hold on to the 5 point lead or will another team get hot and overtake the top spot?
Manchester United have signed the highly-rated American teenager Matthew Olosunde after he received international clearance to join up with the squad last week. Although the deal was finalized January 29, Manchester United did not announce it until Friday once the paperwork went through.
The game between Dortmund and Mainz on Sunday was overshadowed by the tragic death of a Dortmund fan who suffered a heart attack in the stadium. After news of the tragedy started to break around the stadium, the game took a backseat as both players and fans alike were visibly shaken by the event. The usually boisterous atmosphere of the Westfalenstadion was eerily quiet as everyone paid their silent respects to the fan who lost his life.
Portuguese club Porto find themselves right where they need to be in the middle of March, in the thick of the Premeira Liga title race. Things did not look so rosy on Saturday, when Porto were tied with lowly Uniao de Madeira nearing the full-time whistle. Then Jesus "Tecatito" Corona said "lol nope" and won the game for Porto.
Coronal wasn't the only Mexico international to score for Porto Saturday. Hector Herrera put Porto up 2-0 in the 51st minute with a nifty goal.
Think you've seen the most epic volley of all time? Well, think again because Norwegian champions Rosenborg and Scandic Norway have just released a video that should be a serious contender for the prize.
