Liverpool piled pressure on Nico Kovac and Bayern  Munich to get here and so did Manchester United on Thomas Tuchel and PSG. Porto did enough to eliminate an out of form Roma. Tottenham&#8217;s relatively easy 4-0 aggregate win over Borussia Dortmund was a small upset. Ajax played a perfect return game at Real Madrid to cause the biggest upset and news of the round of 16.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since the round of 16 Manchester United have lost some form and are more vulnerable now.
