7Celtic 2-3 Barcelona – 2008
The Catalan giants had a star-studded line-up which included names such as Ronaldinho, Samuel Etoo, Deco, Thierry Henry and Lionel Messi, but it was the longest name in football who gave the home side a shock lead.Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink put Celtic ahead with a powerful header on 15 minutes, but this was cancelled out just three minutes later through Messis first of the evening.Barry Robson sent Parkhead into a state of frenzy when he gave Celtic the advantage for the second time, but Barcelona were rewarded for their dominance shortly after the break when Henry curled into the top corner. With just under 10 minutes remaining, Messi netted his second and the winner, to settle this five-goal thriller ahead of the second-leg.
7Manchester United 4-0 AC Milan – 2010
Wayne Rooney had already earned United a famous win in the San Siro the month before, his brace securing a 3-2 win and he was in the midst of prolific season that would end with 34 goals in all competitions. In the return fixture, the England striker repeated his two-goal heroics; while strikes from Park Ji-Sung and Darren Fletcher made it a miserable return for fan favourite David Beckham.
7Real Madrid 0-1 Arsenal – 2006
Arsenal showed great resilience to prevail against the best team in the tournaments history to earn a memorable victory at the Bernaebu. Under-strength, the Gunners fielded the likes of Emmanuel Eboue and Philippe Senderos, but this mattered little in the end as Henry surged past four half-hearted challenges to slot beyond Iker Casillas. The goal would prove decisive as Arsenal kept a clean sheet in the return meeting to progress.
7Manchester United 1-2 Real Madrid 2013
Cristiano Ronaldo found himself on the score sheet once more against his former club following his return to Old Trafford. United had looked on course for the quarter-finals after Sergio Ramos put into his own net just after half-time. Nani was sent off following an aerial challenge with Alvaro Arbeloa, leaving Sir Alex Ferguson raging on the touchline.Until then, Jose Mourinhos side had offered little, but proceeded to capitalise on their numerical advantage in the space of three minutes. First, a wonderful strike from Luka Modric levelled the tie and the match, before Ronaldo had his second of this fixture, remaining respectful with his muted celebration.
7Liverpool 4-0 Real Madrid – 2009
A scintillating performance from the Reds helped them power past a hapless Real Madrid and progress to the quarter-finals. Rafa Benitezs side, who were in fine form domestically, showed they also meant business in the Champions League and Fernando Torres opened the scoring against his old adversaries, drawing boos from the travelling supporters for his Atletico past.Steven Gerrard, on his 100th European appearance, doubled the lead with a penalty, before side-footing in his second on 47 minutes. The only shock of the night was that the fourth came from substitute Andrea Dossena to complete a dream performance.
7Chelsea 4-2 Barcelona 2005
When Chelsea fans express discontent at the way in which the current side are performing, it is because once upon a time, they were capable of playing like this in a match of such magnitude. Eidur Gudjohnsens emphatic turn and finish opened the scoring and Chelsea raced into a three-goal lead before the 20th minute, courtesy of Frank Lampard and Damien Duff.The irrepressible Ronaldinho was at the peak of his powers and his attacking brilliance hauled the visitors back into the tie. A penalty was followed by an audacious toe punt, leaving Petr Cech rooted. Barcelona dominated, but a bullet header from John Terry set up a meeting with Bayern Munich.
