City through to the Champions League quarter finals
0-0 draw with Dynamo Kiev sees Blues progress.
Manchester City's progression to the Champions League quarter-finals was overshadowed by injuries to defenders Vincent Kompany and Nicolas Otamendi at the Etihad Stadium on Tuesday night.
Manuel Pellegrini's men were virtually assured of a last-eight berth for the first time in their history following a 3-1 win over Dynamo Kiev in the first leg last month and they encountered few problems in a dull goalless draw back on home soil.
However, their celebrations were somewhat muted after seeing Kompany and Otamendi suffer first-half problems which could leave their defensive ranks ravaged ahead of the Manchester derby on Sunday.
Captain Kompany was the first to go down with a recurrence of the calf problems that have blighted him throughout his time in England before Otamendi, who was hurt during a robust challenge, also had to be withdrawn after 23 minutes.
Even without their first-choice centre-back pairing, City still managed to coast past Kiev though, and they almost won the game on the night, with Jesus Navas striking against the foot of the post in the second half.
City were joined in the last eight by 2014 finalists Atletico Madrid, although the Spaniards' progress was nowhere near as serene.
Diego Simone's side had to come through a penalty shoot-out that they won 8-7 after 120 minutes of goalless football with PSV Eindhoven followed the stalemate in Holland last month.
Jurgen Locadia hit the post for PSV in the second half before substitute Fernando Torres did likewise at the other end, and neither team could find a way through in extra-time either.
The first 14 penalties were all converted in the shoot-out, including efforts from Torres, Jose Gimenez and Filipe Luis which came in sudden-death situations, before Luciano Narsingh, who only came on deep into extra time, hit the crossbar.
Juanfran then rolled home the decisive penalty to ensure Atleti made it through to the quarter-final stage.
