The Premier League side won 2-0 to progress to the last eight

Nasri was sent off and N'Zonzi missed a penalty for the Liga side

Leicester City's incredible story continued on Wednesday as they knocked Sevilla out of the Champions League 3-2 on aggregate. 

Goals from Wes Morgan and Marc Albrighton sealed a 2-0 win at the King Power Stadium as Leicester turned around a 2-1 deficit from the first leg. 

Samir Nasri was sent off for Sevilla as they chased the game and Steven N'Zonzi missed a penalty. 

Sevilla missed a penalty in the first leg, too, and coach Jorge Sampaoli and midfielder Vicente Iborra both bemoaned a lack of luck over the two legs. 

Craig Shakespeare had replaced Claudio Ranieri since the first leg and the Foxes form has turned around dramatically, with wins over Liverpool and Hull. 

Meanwhile, Sevilla came into the game having draw their last two league games. 

Morgan scored the opener at the far post from a free-kick after Jamie Vardy had bought a free-kick. 

Albrighton scored the second, firing home from inside the area just moments after Sergio Escudero had hit the bar for Sevilla from all of 40 yards. 

Nasri was then sent off for a second yellow card after a clash with Vardy but Sevilla continued to dominate with 10 men. 

However, when N'Zonzi saw his penalty saved by Kasper Schmeichel the Spanish side knew their luck was up. 

JUVENTUS HAVE QUALIFIED 

Italian side Juventus also reached the last eight with a 1-0 win over Porto, a penalty from Paulo Dybala competing a 3-0 aggregate win against the Portuguese side. 

That means the quarter-finals consists of: Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Barcelona, Borussia Dortmund, Leicester City, Juventus, Manchester City/Monaco, Atletico/Bayer Leverkusen.
