(AP photo)KHARKIV, Ukraine: Shakhtar Donetsk advanced to the knockout stage of the Champions League with a 2-1 victory over Manchester City on Wednesday, ending the English club's unbeaten record in all competitions this season. Defeat means City, which had already qualified as Group F winner, failed to become only the seventh club in Champions League history to win every game in the group stage. Eight minutes later, Ederson was left helpless in a different way for Shakhtar's second goal as Marlos passed into space behind the City defence. City earned a consolation goal in added time when Sergio Aguero scored from the penalty spot after Bogdan Butko brought down Gabriel Jesus. In Madrid, Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo set a record for scoring in every Champions League group game as his side won an entertaining encounter 3-2 over Borussia Dortmund, who clinched a spot in the Europa League.
