Cristiano Ronaldo scored twice but could not prevent Juventus from going out of the Champions League despite a 2-1 second-leg victory over Lyon.


The French team progressed to the quarterfinals on away goals after a 2-2 draw on aggregate. Memphis Depay scored an early penalty but also conceded one at the end of the first half, which was converted by Ronaldo.

Lyon will face Manchester City in the single-elimination quarterfinals in Lisbon.
