With a Notelf, RB Leipzig has preserved the chance of wintering in the European Football Cup.
The Bundesliga runner-up, supervised by co-trainer Achim Beierlorzer, prevailed 5-0 (4-0) in the Champions League against the completely overwhelmed Belgian champions FC Bruges on Wednesday evening.
Thus, the Leipzig team decided the direct duel for third place in Group A for themselves.
If Leipzig and Bruges are tied with four points after the last matchday, RB can continue to play in the Europa League.
Christopher Nkunku (12th minute / 90th + 3), Emil Forsberg (17th / foul penalty / 45th + 1) and André Silva (26th) met for RB.
