Wednesday's UCL Roundup: Atletico And 3 Other Clubs Progress; PSG Beat Liverpool by queenonyebiri1(f): 12:45am On Nov 29, 2018
Here's last night's UEFA Champions League roundup...

Atletico Madrid 2-0 Monaco

Atletico confirmed progress in the early kick-off and ended the European hopes of Thierry Henry's young Monaco side.

Koke struck Atletico's fastest-ever UEFA Champions League goal in the second minute and midway through the first half Antoine Griezmann added another.

Monaco improved after the interval but substitute Radamel Falcao, given a hero's welcome by his former fans in Madrid, missed a late penalty following a Stefan Savic hand ball for which he received a second yellow card.

Borussia Dortmund 0-0 Club Brugge

A point was all Dortmund needed to book their round of 16 spot and that was what they got.

The home side had the better of the few available chances while Club Brugge will be heading for the UEFA Europa League round of 32.

PSV Eindhoven 1-2 Barcelona

Already through before last night, Barcelona sealed first place in their group for a 12th year running, and a record 17th year overall, after a 61st-minute goal by Lionel Messi, whose free-kick shortly afterwards was turned in by Gerard Pique.

PSV hit the woodwork twice at 0-0 and Luuk de Jong pulled one back late on, but the defeat consigned them to fourth position.

Tottenham Hotspur 1-0 Inter Milan

Christian Eriksen's strike ten minutes from time kept Spurs in the last-16 hunt and lifted them into second, above Inter (who would have been through with a draw) on head-to-head away goals.

Harry Winks had rattled the bar in a strong Tottenham performance and they must now secure as many points at Barcelona as Inter do at home to PSV.

Paris Saint-Germain 2-1 Liverpool

Paris began the night with elimination a possibility, yet instead are now a victory at Crvena zvezda away from the round of 16.

Juan Bernat opened the scoring on 13 minutes, then Neymar became the first Brazilian to register 31 UEFA Champions League goals.

Just before half-time James Milner reduced arrears from the penalty spot on his 150th Liverpool appearance but Paris held firm and Liverpool have to beat Napoli to have a chance of progress.
