The result means that Eintracht and Tottenham progress to the Round of 16 while Marseille drop into the Europa League. Sporting, however, have no European football whatsoever to look forward to after Christmas. They're out.
All over at the Jose Alvalade and it's Eintracht who'll progress to the next phase of the Champions League at Sporting's expense.

56' Pellegrini whips in a corner from the right side of the pitch but it evades everyone in the box and flies out of play.
54' Sporting are locked in, their back three morphing into a five whenever they don't have possession. They don't want to let this lead slip.
52' Porro does brilliantly to step up and play a defence-splitting pass through to Arthur, only for the Brazilian to miscontrol the ball and for the move to die out.

Sporting are good value for their lead. They've seen the lion share of the ball and controlled the game for the most part.

Goal

38' Sporting are still retaining possession of the ball intelligently.
36' Pellegrini whips in the resulting free-kick but Eintracht fail to direct an effort on goal and concede a foul instead.
Matheus Reis
Yellow Card
34' Reis, just on the pitch, is booked after flying into a reckless challenge on Ebimbe.

Matheus Reis
Nuno Santos
32' Reis has replaced Santos, who's not fit enough to proceed after suffering that injury.
30' Kamada does well to win a corner for Eintracht out on the right side. Santos, however, seems to have rolled his ankle in the process of conceding the corner and looks to be in considerable pain.
28' Sporting are taking some quite brave decisions when playing out from the back. They're beating the press as things stand, however.
26' Santos lifts the ball from the left wing into the box to try and find Paulinho, only for Eintracht to deal with the danger without a problem.
24' Sporting, as the game progresses, are beginning to grow in stature and confidence. They're moving the ball just that bit better, with more fluidity.
22' Edwards, looking bright, tries to thread a nice ball into space to find Paulinho, but he loses his battle with his opposing number and the attack is killed.
20' Eintracht's game plan seems to entail winning the ball high up the pitch and launching direct counter-attacks. Sporting are trying to control the game with becoming too conservative and fearful of conceding their narrow advantage.
18' Coates, under pressure from an opposing player, concedes a corner only for the set-piece to come to nothing.
16' Eintracht, playing with a real edge to their game, try another defence-splitting pass only for Sporting to cut it out.
D. Kamada
Yellow Card
14' Kamada is booked for a late challenge on Paulinho.
12' CHANCE! Sporting make a mess of an Eintracht corner and very nearly concede. The ball is directed toward goal by Paulinho and Adan does well to keep it out.
10' There's been a couple of spicy challenges already. Both sides are completely committed to the cause.
8' The ball is whipped into the box from the resulting free-kick before ultimately falling to Edwards in a dangerous position inside the box. His effort is tame, however, and easily dealt with by Trapp.
K. Jakić
Yellow Card
7' Jakic is booked for a late challenge on Arthur.
6' Eintracht try their luck with an arrowed ball into the final third only for Sporting to clean it up rather easily.

Eintracht, as has been clarified, are in a very similar position to Sporting. They've also taken seven points from their first five games and are third in Champions League Group D. Unlike Sporting, however, who could still qualify for the next phase of the competition if they earn a point, Eintracht have to win in order to progress. Their head-to-head record with Tottenham and Sporting isn't good enough to sneak through if they simply avoid defeat - they need all three points.
Sporting come into this one placed second in Champions League Group D. They've taken seven points from their first five games and are just one behind group leaders Tottenham Hotspur. Eintracht, in third, are level on points with them. Marseille, rooted to the bottom of the table, are just one point behind them. All four teams begin the final matchday of the group phase with a chance of progressing to the next phase of the competition. But if Sporting can win, their place is secured no matter what else happens in the group.
