Liverpool and Bayern Munich advanced to the UEFA Champions League quarterfinals Tuesday evening.

Nicknamed the Reds, Liverpool lost to Italian side Inter Milan 1-0 at home but the English club just managed to reach the next stage of the tournament.

Inter's Argentine forward Lautaro Martinez broke the deadlock in the 62nd minute, sending the ball to the top corner of Liverpool’s net at Anfield Stadium.

Only a minute after Martinez's stunning goal, the Italian club were down to 10 men in the round of 16 second leg.

Chilean forward Alexis Sanchez was shown a red card after a mistimed challenge on Liverpool midfielder Fabinho.

Inter won the second leg in England, but it wasn’t enough to proceed.

Liverpool previously won the first leg 2-0 in Milan so they bagged the quarterfinals ticket despite Tuesday's loss.
