Kownacki's goal keeps Düsseldorf in promotion contention

Fortuna Düsseldorf's Dawid Kownacki broke down in tears after scoring a goal against Schalke 04, fueled by the recent death of his grandfather. Kownacki's emotional goal, a header in the 57th minute, gave Düsseldorf a 2-0 victory and a slim chance at the promotion play-offs. The team's coach decided to play Kownacki despite his grief. Düsseldorf needs a win in their final match and for other results to go their way to reach the play-offs. Schalke, despite the loss, is likely safe from relegation.
