Jakub Blaszczykowski celebrates his goal in Borussia Dortmund's vital Champions League victory over Napoli Tuesday.

At least his team is through: Schalke¹s 0-0 draw with Steaua Bucharest leaves Chelsea one point ahead of Basel and two of Schalke, who face each other in Gelsenkirchen on Matchday Six. The German team will need to win at home to qualify, while Chelsea will need to beat Steaua to finish top. To add to Mourinho's headache, Samuel Eto'o was stretchered off with a groin injury.
