Barcelona and Atletico Madrid both crash out of Champions League in huge upsets

Barcelona and Atletico Madrid have both crashed out of the Champions League with a full round of group stages remaining.

Inter joined Bayern Munich in qualifying for the Round of 16 from Group C, with their progress in the competition centred on their results against the Blaugrana earlier in the group stage. Barca's elimination was confirmed before their three-goal home defeat against Bayern Munich, as Inter ran out four-goal victors over Viktoria Plzen.

Two goals in the space of seven minutes before half-time sealed Inter's victory over their Czech opposition at the San Siro, as Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Edin Dzeko both found the net to help Inter progress. Dzeko and substitute Romelu Lukaku added further goals in the second period. Barca have picked up just one point from their last four group stage games as their fate was sealed.
