Marseille were undone by the brilliance of Cristiano Ronaldo as they crashed out of the Champions League with a 3-1 Group C defeat to Real Madrid at Stade Velodrome.
The French side needed to win and hope that Milan failed to beat Zurich but, while the Rossoneri were held in Switzerland, Marseille could not keep their part of the bargain in an entertaining clash.
Ronaldo (pictured) hit two classy goals near the start and end of the match, with Raul Albiol also on target for Los Merengues.
Lucho Gonzalez had earlier equalised for L’OM but he turned from hero to zero after missing a penalty that would have made it 2-2 with 21 minutes left.
