The German club created a sensation by beating the French champions in the semi-finals at their stadium in Paris.
Borussia Dortmund is the first finalist of the 2023/24 Champions League. The German club earned a ticket to the decisive stage, beating PSG on aggregate.
After a minimal 1:0 victory at home, the Bumblebees defeated their opponents in Paris by the same score. Let’s remember that the return match took place with the full advantage of the French team, which, however, did not achieve any of the many opportunities.
As a result, the fate of the meeting was decided by an accurate shot made by the guests. The super-experienced Mats Hummels tackled it. At the start of the second half, Julian Brandt delivered a cross from a corner, which the centerback successfully completed with a header.
As a result, the Dortmund club again defeated its opponent with a score of 1:0 and reached the final, where it will meet the winner of the Real – Bayern pair.
