Bordeaux reached the quarter-finals of the Champions League for the first time in 22 years, beating Olympiakos 2-1 after goals from Yoann Gourcuff and Marouane Chamakh.

Gourcuff put Bordeaux ahead in the fifth minute but Olympiakos levelled midway through the second half through substitute Kostas Mitroglou. The visitors looked the better side until Chamakh scored with a brilliant header in the 88th as Bordeaux advanced 3-1 on aggregate.

Olympiakos striker Matt Derbyshire and Bordeaux midfielder Alou Diarra were both sent off in the second half.

Bordeaux join Lyon in the quarter-finals - the first time two French clubs have reached the last eight since Lyon and Monaco in 2004.
