On Wednesday evening, two more Champions League quarter-final matches were played. The action moved to Italy and Germany this evening. A historic victory was celebrated by Bergamo's Atalanta at the San Siro stadium. The Italian team, competing in the Champions League for the first time in their history this season, defeated Valencia's footballers with a score of 4-1. Atalanta had a two-goal advantage already in the first half - Hans Hateboer scored first, and Josip Ilicic increased the lead with a fantastic shot at the end of the half. In the second half, Valencia's problems did not disappear - Remo Freuler scored another impressive goal in the 57th minute, and the first goal scorer Hateboer scored the fourth goal into the opponent's net. Valencia's consolation goal came in the 66th minute from Denis Cheryshev. In other matches, a sad evening unfolded at the stadium for London's Tottenham, coached by Jose Mourinho, who acknowledged Leipzig's advantage. The German guests, who dominated from the start of the match, celebrated victory after Timo Werner's accurate shot from the penalty spot. The last 20 minutes belonged to Tottenham's players, but they did not have real opportunities to score. The second-leg matches will take place in both Germany and Spain on March 10.
