Liverpool won all of their six games in their group, the first-ever English side to do so, and finished top of Group D.

What clubs will make it to the quarterfinals? Let us know in the comments section.

Chelsea beat Juventus by the highest scoreline ever against the Old Lady in the tournament (4-0) and eventually progressed in second place.

Manchester United suffered a defeat and a draw against Swiss outfit Young Boys and had to rely on the superb Cristiano Ronaldo, the competition’s all-time goalscorer, to save their skin in the group stages, particularly against Atalanta.

Despite this, they finished first and so will be seeded against a runner-up for their next game.
