leg, completed victory over Panathinaikos in routine fashion thanks to Dieudonne Mbokani's goal in first-half stoppage time.

The striker flicked a bouncing ball over his marker before firing fiercely past goalkeeper Alexandros Tzorvas to put his side's place in the draw beyond doubt.

Christian Gentner's late goal saw Wolfsburg complete the quarter-final line-up by virtue of a 2-1 extra-time win over Rubin Kazan.

After a 1-1 first leg in Russia, Alan Kasaev put Rubin ahead having been teed up by Alexander Bukharov, but Wolves substitute Obafemi Martins levelled with a diving header from close range.

The hosts were harshly denied a late winner when Edin Dzeko tapped in but an erroneous offside flag earlier in the move ensured an additional 30 minutes.

Wolfsburg's Marcel Schafer and Rubin's Cesar Navas went close from corners before the latter was sent off following a second booking for tugging back Dzeko.

And Gentner brilliantly swept home Martins' pass from the edge of the box with a minute remaining to ensure justice was done.
