"Olympiacos has the same points as us?"
Schuster's face turned grim. If the match ended with the current score, Real Madrid would lose to Werder Bremen.
In the next match, Real Madrid would at least need to draw with Lazio to eliminate them. Meanwhile, if Olympiacos defeated Werder Bremen, Olympiacos would be first in the group, leaving Real Madrid with no chance for goal differential, only qualifying as the second in the group.
If Olympiacos drew or lost to Werder Bremen, Real Madrid would be first in the group, based on goal differential and head-to-head results.

"Both this match and the next one are very important for us," Francisco said quietly. "If we can't win this match, there's a certain probability we'll be eliminated."
Francisco's words were rather polite.
