The opening clash of this stage took place last night, April 30, at the iconic Emirates Stadium, where Premier League giants Arsenal hosted Ligue 1 heavyweights Paris Saint-Germain.
Despite being favourites to win the first leg, the Gunners were narrowly defeated 1-0 by the Parisians, much to the surprise of many fans and pundits.
In the other semi-final of the tournament, La Liga leaders Barcelona staged a dramatic comeback to secure a 3-3 draw against Serie A side Inter Milan.

The winners of this tie, along with the victors from the other semi-final pairing, will go head-to-head in the final for the tournament trophy.
Surprisingly, a Nigerian man of God has already prophesied the teams that will reach the final stage, as well as the winner of the tournament.
What the Nigerian pastor said
Dr. Papa Frank Lloyd, founder of Light Bearers Church in Port Harcourt, Nigeria, has predicted the UCL semi-final and final results as written by God.
In a viral clip circulating on social media, the pastor claimed to have seen a vision of the Champions League's outcome.
He mentioned that the semi-finalists would be Inter Milan (Italy), Arsenal (England), Barcelona (Spain), and PSG (France).
According to his prophecy, Barcelona would defeat Inter Milan, while Arsenal and PSG would face off in what he described as the final before the final.
He predicted a fierce and extended battle between England and France, ultimately seeing PSG prevail.
In the final, he foresaw a close contest between Barcelona and PSG, with Barcelona eventually snatching the victory.
"I am seeing the end of the Champions League. Italy-Inter Milan; England-Arsenal; Spain-Barcelona; France-PSG. Spain- Spain is defeating Italy. England is playing against France, which is the final before the final of the Champions League. It's a stiff battle, a fierce battle between France and England. I am seeing an elongated time, but at the end, I am seeing PSG prevailing, and I am seeing Spain and France in the final. I am seeing France close to it, but I saw Spain snatching it," the pastor said.
Simone Inzaghi reacts after Barcelona vs Inter Milan
Inter Milan manager Simone Inzaghi credited Barcelona as the best team in the world.
“We're very satisfied because we played very well. Obviously, there's a bit of regret having gone two up and having a goal ruled out, but we know we played well against the best side in the world. The offside? These moments can make the difference, but the lads were still fantastic; we showed lots of quality and heart. Barcelona have scored 150 goals this season. They have lots of quality, but we were very organised," as captured on Inter Milan's website.
Inzaghi also waxed lyrical about Yamal, who terrorised his defence all night long.
"We tried to adjust a few things, but then there was Yamal. I've not seen a player like him for years. Going ahead again wasn't enough, then with the passing of time, their fatigue showed too, and we showed great quality."

TUKO.co.ke earlier reported Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta's view on the costly mistake that led to his side’s defeat against PSG.
The Gunners conceded an early goal in the opening minutes, scored by Ousmane Dembélé, which ultimately decided the match.
The 43-year-old coach admitted PSG started stronger, crediting their ability to beat Arsenal's press and individual brilliance for the opening goal. He highlighted his team's poor ball retention as a key issue.
Martin Moses, the head of the department for sports, contributed to this article by adding details about Inzaghi's comments.
