It didn't take long for Real Madrid to get back to winning games. Three days after seeing its perfect start to the season end with a draw in the Spanish league, Madrid beat Shakhtar Donetsk 2-1 in the Champions League to take full control of Group F. Rodrygo and Vincius Jnior scored a goal each in the first half as the defending champions cruised to a third straight victory in the European competition. The result at the Santiago Bernabu Stadium gave Madrid a five-point lead over Shakhtar, which started the match with 11 Ukrainian players. In the other group match, Leipzig defeated winless Celtic 3-1 at home to stay in third place, one point behind Shakhtar. It was Madrid's seventh straight group-stage win in the Champions League.

Frankfurt wins by 1-0 over Marseille in Champions League amid fans' clash

Careless defending cost Marseille again in the Champions League as it lost 1-0 at home to Europa League winner Eintracht Frankfurt on Tuesday. Coach Igor Tudor's side is unbeaten in the French league but lacks a cutting edge at this level. Marseille looked organized and untroubled, just like last week against Tottenham, but fell behind in the 43rd minute after a defensive error allowed attacking midfielder Jesper Lindstrm to score. Japan midfielder Daichi Kamada thought he had made it 2-0 in the 79th but his effort was ruled out for offside. Tottenham's 2-0 loss at Sporting in the other Group D game means Sporting takes charge with six points, having beaten Frankfurt 3-0 last week in Germany. Tottenham and Frankfurt have three points, with Spurs in second place on goal difference and Marseille last. It was a hostile atmosphere at Stade Velodrome, where riot police intervened before kickoff and late on to quell disorder as opposing fans threw flares and fireworks at each other. A .

Man City fends off Atltico, reaches Champions League semis

Manchester City held Atltico Madrid to a 0-0 draw to return to the Champions League semifinals and keep alive its hopes of winning Europe's top club competition for the first time. City advanced thanks to its 1-0 win in the first leg last week. In the end, it was Pep Guardiola getting the best of Diego Simeone in the battle of styles between City's offensive-minded tactics and Atltico's more cautious approach. Atltico's attack struggled to find the net again and the Spanish club managed only three attempts on target after having none in the first leg. The hosts played the final minutes a man down after defender Felipe was sent off for kicking an opponent. The benches had been cleared a few moments earlier as Atltico's players appeared upset with City's attempt to waste time. The match ended with more than 12 minutes of stoppage time and Atltico had a couple of goods chances to break the deadlock but couldn't capitalize on them. Runner-up last year, City will next face Real Madrid
