Who said what: Champions League
PARIS - Who said what after Wednesday's Champions League group games which saw Paris Saint-Germain squeeze into the last 16:
"We are still alive. No team will hope to play us in the next round, even if we finish second in this group."
-- PSG coach Luis Enrique after his team qualified with a 1-1 draw at Borussia Dortmund.
"From now until the next round, we're going to have to prepare well and prepare better because big opponents will be on the way."
-- PSG defender Marquinhos.
"In the end, we worked hard to win this group. Now we have to continue to play consistently well in the next round."
-- Dortmund coach Edin Terzic.
"We wanted to win the game and we were trying to head for the Champions League so we had to be brave.
"They had to be brave. It made for a very good game. We did create chances and we're absolutely devastated not to go through."
-- Newcastle manager Eddie Howe after his side's 2-1 loss to AC Milan saw both teams eliminated.
"I think it would be foolish of me to look back and start bringing up old stuff. We had the opportunity tonight to do what we had to do and we didn't take it."
-- Howe on a controversial penalty which cost Newcastle victory at PSG last month.
"In Porto, we never play for a draw, even though that result also suited us. The manager said this match would be like a final and we had to win. Mission accomplished."
-- Porto's Galeno after scoring a double as the Portuguese club beat Shakhtar Donetsk 5-3 to go through.
"It's a bit strange to lose and be proud of the players. But we came here to fight, play, and offer people some good football against very good opponents. My players gave it their all, and fought until the end. I am very proud of this young team."
-- Shakhtar coach Marino Pusic, whose side will play in the Europa League in the new year.
"I was very happy after the goal. As a child, you talk about it with your brothers, that it is a dream. Today a dream came true."
-- Antwerp midfielder Arthur Vermeeren after scoring in a surprise 3-2 win over Barcelona.
"It meant a lot to us. Even though it had no bearing on how the table finished, it still meant a lot to us as players."
-- Celtic defender Liam Scales on a 2-1 victory against Feyenoord. - AFP
