Kroos wins with Real, Podolski goal not enough for Gala

Ten-time Champions League winners Real Madrid with Toni Kroos have already confirmed their place in the last 16 of the competition. The Spanish giants were 1-0 winners against former Eintracht Frankfurt keeper Kevin Trapp’s Paris St. Germain side on Tuesday night. Elsewhere, Bastian Schweinsteiger’s Manchester United claimed an important win, while Galatasaray are on the brink of exiting the competition despite Lukas Podolski’s goal.

Nacho grabbed Real Madrid’s goal to move them to ten points, enough to ensure a place in the knockout stages thanks to Shakhtar’s 4-0 win over Malmö. PSG should join the Spaniards in the next round.

Podolski’s equaliser not enough

Wayne Rooney netted United’s winning goal against CSKA Moscow, ending a 404-minute drought for the Devils in all competitions. Louis van Gaal’s side now top Group B with seven points, ahead of PSV and Wolfsburg who each have six.

A strong left-footed strike from Lukas Podolski saw Galatasaray level the scores at 1-1 with Benfica, but Luisao added to Jonas’ earlier goal to ensure the Portuguese outfit came away with all three points in the end. They lead the way in Group C with nine points, while the Turkish side are just third with four points, three behind Atletico Madrid.
