Dionissis Chiotis was the hero as he saved twice in a penalty shootout to send APOEL into the quarter-finals of the Champions League at the expense of Lyon.

APOEL's 1-0 win on the night tied the game on aggregate and with the score level at 3-3 in the shootout, Chiotis saved successive penalties from Alexandre Lacazette and Michel Bastos to secure his side a place in the last eight on their first appearance in the knockout stages.

Gustavo Manduca scored the only goal of the night in normal time to cancel out Lacazette's winner for Lyon in the first leg.
