REAL MADRID remain on top in Champions League Group A after a 0-0 draw with closest challengers Paris St Germain.

Cristiano Ronaldo had the best chances to break the deadlock, but Real Madrid's hosts held firm to lie second in the group on goal difference.

Malmo are third in the group after a 1-0 home win over Shakhtar Donetsk, courtesy of a goal from Markus Rosenberg. Nikola Djurdjic spurned the chance to double the lead when he missed a second-half penalty.

Wolfsburg top Group B after second-half strikes from Bas Dost and Max Kruse saw them beat PSV Eindhoven 2-0, the visitors missing a penalty through Jurgen Locadia.

Atletico Madrid's 4-0 home win over Astana moved them top of Group C ahead of Benfica, who lost 2-1 away to Galatasaray. Saul Niguez, Jackson Martinez, Oliver Torres and a Denis Dedechko own goal earned the three points for Atletico.

Nicolas Gaitan had given Benfica the lead, but a Selcuk Inan penalty and a Lukas Podolski strike wrapped up the win for the Turkish side before half-time.

Juventus remain top in group D after a 0-0 home draw against Borussia Moenchengladbach.
