Uefa
About this episode
New year but same old drama in the UEFA Champions League as it rained goals on Matchday 7. 

Raphinha was the hero for Barcelona as they edged Benfica in a dramatic nine goal thriller in Lisbon to deny Liverpool being crowned League Phase winners after the English club made it 7 wins from 7 against Lille at Anfield. 10-man Atletico left it late to overcome Leverkusen 2-1 in Madrid thanks to a Julian Alvarez double. Elsewhere there were wins for Monaco, Atalanta, PSV, Stuttgart and Bologna as 33 goals were netted across Tuesday's nine matches. 

We hear from Liverpool's Mo Salah and Arne Slot, Barcelona Head Coach Hansi Flick, Benfica's hat-trick hero Vangelis Pavlidis, Atalanta midfielder Charles De Ketelaere and Villa defender Tyrone Mings. Plus Pep Guardiola looks ahead to Manchester City's crucial clash with Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday evening.
