Champions League: Barcelona, Liverpool, Man Utd - quarter-final talking points
The Champions League quarter-final first legs took place this week, with more low-scoring games than we saw in the last 16.
There were 52 goals in eight last-16 ties, but only six goals in this week's four ties.
That does not mean the matches were short on talking points, with the BBC Radio 5 Live Football Daily team discussing Liverpool's 2-0 win over Porto, Tottenham's 1-0 victory against Manchester City, Barcelona's 1-0 win at Manchester United and Ajax's 1-1 draw with Juventus.
Barcelona win at Old Trafford... but is Suarez fat?
Barcelona were far from at their best against United, but managed to win 1-0thanks to Luke Shaw's own goal from Luis Suarez's header.
But was the 32-year-old Uruguayan carrying a little extra weight?
French football writer Julien Laurens said: "How much weight has he put on? It's unbelievable.
"I hadn't realised from watching his games on TV - it was the first time I've seen him live this season. I can't believe how fat he is. I don't know how at a club like that you allow a player to let himself go so much."
