Over at Real Madrid - the club Trent Alexander-Arnold could reportedly leave boyhood club Liverpool for in a matter of months - Tuesday night ended in joy as Los Blancos qualified for the Copa del Rey final.
However it came with trials, tribulations and sour feelings towards one player in particular.
Exiting the international break, rumours spread like wildfire of Alexander-Arnold negotiating terms for a summer switch to Real Madrid.

He would supposedly trade his Anfield career in for a move to the Spanish capital, where nothing but the best is tolerated.
That was evidently clear from the way the player he would stand to replace, Lucas Vazquez, was treated by his own fans.

Carlo Ancelotti's side had won the first of their two-legged semi-final against Real Sociedad 1-0 in February, that match away from home.
But the advantage was dashed after only sixteen minutes of the Santiago Bernabeu's return leg.
Ander Barrenetxea got in behind Madrid's right-sided full-back and made no mistake beating goalkeeper Andriy Lunin.
When talking about Vazquez, this is a player who has been a Madridista since childhood, playing for the club's youth ranks since the age of 16.
A chorus of boos and jeers from Madrid supporters, say the Spanish media.

Vazquez, who would leave the club as his contract expires when Alexander-Arnold would be due arrive, was eventually taken off in the 79th minute though it would seem not down to the bad reception he got from his own supporters but rather Madrid's desire to spark change.
