Atletico Madrid eased past their opponent, Fc Koebenhavn. Kelvin Gameiro gave the home team the lead in the 7th minute of the game, and that seemed to be the only goal of the game. The match ended Atletico 1-0 Koebenhavn, making the aggregate 5-0.
Borussia Dortmund came from behind to snatch a crucial point at Atalanta. The home team took the lead in the 11th minute, and the Visitors responded late in the second half.

Oestersunds traveled to London to face Arsenal with only but a little hope, after trailing by 3 goals at home in the first leg. Their dream almost turned to reality, as they were 2 goals up in the first half. But their joy was short-lived, thanks to a Kolasinac strike in the early stages of the second half. The match ended Arsenal 1-2 Oestersunds, and the scoreline is enough to send the gunners to the next round.
