(Reuters) - The sight of smiling Borussia Dortmund players after a game has been a rare sight these days but their Champions League knockout qualification with a 4-1 win over Galatsaray on Tuesday provided much-needed confidence for a planned league comeback.

Dortmund made their best start to the Champions League with their fourth win in four Group D games.
