The Bumblebees won the game thanks to goals from Sancho and Royce.
Borussia Dortmund beat on home field PSV in the return match of the 1/8 finals Champions League – 2:0.
Jadon Sancho sealed Walter Benitez’s goal in the third minute with a precise low shot from outside the penalty area.
Subsequently, the Bumblebees tried to control the course of the game and could repeatedly increase the score, but something was always missing. In the 77th minute, Marco Reus, who replaced Sancho (injured again), sent in a free-kick, and Niklas Füllkrug hit the ball home. The VAR canceled the goal – the forward was literally three centimeters out of play.
For their part, the guests also attacked diligently and had their moments. Luuk de Jong could have scored a couple of times, missing his last chance in the fourth minute of stoppage time. In the response attack, Royce took advantage of a blunder by young Isaac Babadi and realized a one-on-one situation.
Having defended the result in a nervous ending, Borussia advanced to the quarterfinals of the main European Cup. This coming Sunday, March 17, Edin Terzic’s team will host Eintracht Frankfurt. PSV will play at home against Twente on the same day.
