RB surprised a lot of people with doing that, but it’s a fact now – they are still in the competition.

Roberto Mancini’s Zenit reached the 1/8-finals after eliminating Scottish champions Celtic. Zenit lost the first leg at Glasgow with 0-1, but a dominant 3-0 win in the rematch ensured that Zenit will go through in the tournament.
