MADRID HUMBLED

With the Club World Cup only a week away, Madrid coach Santiago Solari rested most of his key players and used several others who hadn't started much this season, including Francisco "Isco" Alarcon and Marco Asensio.

There was no intensity to Madrid's play CSKA capitalized, completing a home-and-away double over the titleholders that still didn't lift the Russian team off last place. Viktoria Plzen beat Roma 2-1 to finish in front, with CSKA needing to better Plzen's result in the Czech Republic.

Fedor Chalov and Georgi Schennikov scored late in the first half for CSKA, and Arnor Sigurdsson added another after the break.

"It's sad ... to beat Real Madrid, earn seven points, but finish bottom and get eliminated from Europe," CSKA coach Viktor Goncharenko said.
