Thierry Henry’s Monaco are out of the Champions League after they were thrashed by Club Brugge.

The defeat was the Ligue 1 side’s heaviest in the competition and leaves them with one point from four matches.

Henry, 41, is winless in five games in charge, with this a third defeat.

A Hans Vanaken double and a Wesley Moraes strike put Club Brugge 3-0 up at the break, before Ruud Vormer completed the victory late in the second half.

The loss extends Monaco’s run this season to 15 games without a victory in all competitions – they have not won since their second game of the campaign.

Atletico Madrid’s 2-0 victory against Borussia Dortmund in Spain means those two teams have nine points in Group A, while third-placed Club Brugge have four points and retain an outside chance of reaching the knockout stages.
