Gelsenkirhentsy made a huge step towards the Champions League playoffs.
Following the four rounds, the Gelzenkirchens are now 4 points ahead of Galatasaray, and if they win the next match over Porto, or the Turks are defeated by Lokomotiv, they guarantee themselves first place in the group.
Galatasaray in such a situation would be incredibly difficult to cling to the 1/8 final of the Champions League, but for the Europa League there will be a battle in the next round.
