The Champions League leg-2 game is over and here PSG unfortunately lost at their home ground which is very sad for them. However, Dortmund showed their strong performance by coming to PSG's home ground and winning by 0-1 results 0-2. Although the match was very exciting from start to finish and neither team managed to score before half-time, Dortmund went one goal ahead after half-time. PSG had possession of the ball for most of the attacking period but they could not properly get the ball to the opposition goalkeeper and stop it which is why they lost. Although most people thought that PSG might win this match and enter the Champions League final, they unfortunately lost. It was all about PSG in the match they had a lot of bone in attack yet they lost but Dortmund's players competed well enough to see them through to the final congrats. It is really interesting that Dortmund have made it to the finals from the German league but another team from the German league will face Bayern Munich today. However, there is a possibility that two teams from the German league will play in the Champions League final this season if Bayern Munich can win against Madrid and enter the final.

I can't say that the Bundesliga went well for Dortmund, but they did wonders in the UCL. They emerged as leaders from the group of death in the group stage. They eliminated the strong teams and reached the final by winning the rematch against PSG, which many thought was unlikely. From now on, no matter which team comes, they will try to win in the final.

You would wonder if they will ever win the Champions League Competition with the way it's going as they didn't even play good football yesterday. I was not even happy, Kylian Mbappe was caged up by those Borrussia Dortmund and Ousman Dembele couldn't do shit about the game. I was feeling like, maybe they shouldn't have knocked out Barcelona then if they wasn't really serious with winning the Champions League Competition this season. They should go back and try again next season.

Shout out to Borrussia Dortmund as they made it again to another finals after so many years. From the group stage I underrated Borrussia Dortmund but they have indeed done the impossible this season.
Whoever qualifies for the Champions League finals from these clubs today should not even try to look down on Dortmund else? Lol. They should Fvck around and find around Sha.

The extraordinary game shown by Dortmund and the tightness of their defense made it difficult for Mbappe and his friends to control the ball well. Now Dortmund must be proud because they were able to beat PSG when PSG was host and team guest Yes, they deserve a ticket to the final with the results of the leg match 1st and 2nd leg.

PSG should have been able to score a goal against Dortmund, but it was a shame that not a single PSG player scored a goal and with the result of this match many PSG fans were certainly disappointed because of course the hope of PSG fans was to see PSG win as the hosts.

in the final it will certainly be a more interesting match and it looks like Dortmund will have to fight harder to become champions in the UCL. but I'm sure Edin Terzic will be able to make a good strategy so that Dortmund becomes champion because in the Bundesliga of course there is no hope for Dortmund to win the trophy.

PSG's best season because he has struggled so far to reach the semifinals and soon he can reach the final but unfortunately PSG's journey has to stop now because he was defeated by Dortmund in the semifinals of the Champions League. PSG lost in the first leg away from home and in the second leg PSG also lost at home, even though I think PSG can turn things around in the second leg by at least scoring a 1 goal win so they can take it to a penalty shootout, but that's basically the mentality of the players. PSG is quite bad, they don't have confidence when they are in the biggest competition and PSG put in a lot of effort by taking lots of shots but none of them resulted in goals.

Now that PSG has been eliminated from the Champions League once again they are only able to win the domestic league title like the previous season. Tonight we just have to watch the performance of Real Madrid and Bayern Munich. I think Real Madrid will win this match and Real Madrid will advance to the final against Dortmund, that doesn't mean I underestimate Bayern Munich, it's just that Real Madrid has a good mentality in the Champions League, the players play more confident to win the Champions League title for the umpteenth time.

A big congratulations to borussia dortmund for put not just a good fight to qualify, and also showing more superiority over this psg team, though of a truth I wasn't expecting this kind of result in this reverse fixture no doubt, I was expecting a more robust attacking football from this psg side, considering the fact that they are at home, but I was totally disappointed, Because it was very obvious that they didn't deserve this semi final spot that they just lost, it was because of the red card against Barcelona that made them qualify, and it was very much visible for all to see that they aren't good enough to match borussia dortmund on both legs.

And another thing I observe about the star player of psg, which is Kyler mbape, is  his form has declined drastically compared to when Messi and Neymar was at the club, so to me, now is the best time to leave psg, so that his form wouldn't declined any further, he needs more quality around him, and psg can't afford him that right now, so the best is he just have to move this summer, for his growth, as a player

Looking on the statistic unbelievable how PSG got defeated from Dortmund last night and must kicked out from UEFA Campion League final match, actually PSG more dominance from ball possession until shots on target but Dortmund 's defend most solid make difficult for PSG scoring any goals last night. Many time of shots on target of PSG hit by the goalpost and PSG had to forget about the Champions League trophy this season and extend their record without winning the UCL trophy once.

Based on statistic, PSG get ball possession dominance around 70% and Dortmund 30% with five attempts or shot on target than 30 shots make last night. Dortmund success take advantage trough corner kick and Matt Hummel scoring goals for helping aggregate winning over 2-0 to make Dortmund qualify to final match after waiting almost ten years ago.

Again PSG failed to win the Champions League trophy and they again had to run aground at the hands of Dortmund who were never favorites this season, from the beginning many people thought that PSG would easily turn things around in the second leg just because they lost 0-1 in the first leg, but the proof is now precisely the mentality possessed by Dortmund can be a nightmare for PSG,  Although playing continued to attack in the match and created many chances, but luck was not on PSG's side so that an aggregate of 2 goals was enough to stop PSG journey in the Champions League semi-finals this season.

I think hummels really deserved to be the man of the match, not only because of the only goal he scored in the game, but with his age now he was able to keep Mbappe tight and continue to make mbappe fail to finish he job with well, in that game Dortmund seemed to be very aware that destroying mbappe is the same as destroying PSG and that proved effective in that game,  the mentality possessed by PSG we cannot say that we deserve to be champions in the Champions League because it is not tested at all, the ease of Ligue 1 competition so far certainly does not make them very great to play in the Champions League so far.  

The season was the best for PSG to make it to the UEFA Champions League finals, but they allowed themselves to be beaten by Borussia Dortmund at home and away in their UEFA Champions League semi-final tie. I also thought that PSG would beat Borussia Dortmund 1-0 in the second tie of this season's UEFA Champions League semi-final to have a chance of playing a penalty shootout with Borussia Dortmund. But Borussia Dortmund beat PSG 0-1 at home without PSG scoring a goal. In this season's UEFA Champions League, Borussia Dortmund has played impressive football, and they deserve to qualify for this season's UEFA Champions League finals.

Dortmund defense line was neat and difficult to beat, several times PSG made many attempts without producing any goals, long distance kicks also failed because the goalkeeper was on fire. While Dortmund excelled in quick counter attacks, Sancho also played well and contributed to creating opportunities. He played with Dortmund feeling free and carefree.

Sayonara PSG as usual you can't go any further in the UCL and can only make it to the semifinals. Dortmund finally qualified for the final without conceding in 2 matches. PSG had to bury their dreams again for the umpteenth time. This is competitive football, maybe PSG can only dominate the domestic league, but in the UCL it is clearly different. Actually this match was quite boring, both the rhythm of the first half was boring and the second half. Maybe 10 minutes into the second half after the goal was scored but after that PSG was the same as in the first half, their attacks were not different at all.

Next today we will watch the most anticipated big match between Madrid vs Bayern because both of them are one of the matches that makes us most curious. The 2-2 aggregate requires both teams to use all their abilities. The hosts must not be careless because Bayern Munich players are quite ambitious after being held back at their own headquarters. I hope Ancelotti really strengthens his back line, reflecting that in Leg 1 Bayern Munich excelled in pressing defense.

Borussia Dortmund advanced to the 2023-2024 Champions League final after silencing PSG with a score of 1-0 in the semi-final second leg which was held at the Parc des Princes, PSG's home ground. Dortmund's only winning goal at PSG headquarters this time was created by Mats Hummels' header using a corner kick. With this result, Dortmund is certain to qualify for the Champions League final with a 2-0 aggregate advantage, after beating PSG 1-0 in the first leg at Signal Iduna Park. The German representative returned to experience the final match of the Champions League for the first time since 2013. Borussia Dortmund is now waiting for their opponent in the Champions League final. Real Madrid and Bayern Munich are fighting for tickets to the final on Thursday 9 May at the Santiago Bernabeu.

The match is exciting with serious attempts for attacking from PSG and it becomes hotter after Dortmund scored a first goal at 50th minute. Dortmund after that goal, have to play against big attacking pressure from PSG and they play well as well as get support of luck to beat PSG in this match and have their chance to play a final match.

If you watch the moment before that goal, it's like a trained corner kick from Dortmund as Hummels watched defenders of PSG very carefully and find holes in their defense operation to find a good space and make his head shot. There are two defenders of PSG who were very near with Hummels but none of them closely followed to block Hummels, it's terrible defense from PSG.

Dortmund's match against PSG in the second leg of the semi-final was really very tense, now PSG has to swallow the bitter pill because they lost to Dortmund with a narrow score of 0-1 in this match. I see that PSG really had a lot of opportunities to score goals, but it's a shame that the PSG players didn't. can take advantage of opportunities well as his shots always hit the goal post. and in terms of ball control, PSG is very superior, but Dortmund is really strong and Hummels is really great and of course a hero for Dortmund.

and as the host, it is a shame that PSG had to bear the shame of losing to Dortmund and of course now PSG has failed to get a ticket to the UCL final. and it looks like Dortmund was really lucky because they got a ticket to the Champions League final and of course this is a good achievement. Of course, we won't know the opponent that Dortmund will face in the final, but what is certain is that the opponent that Dortmund will face will definitely be a strong opponent. It seems very difficult to predict who will qualify for the final against Dortmund, but I predict that Real Madrid will have great potential to qualify for the final and I am sure Ancelotti will definitely make his men perform better so they can win tickets to the final.

After seeing the score and watching the highlight i was speechless. Indeed, this was the fate of Dortmund to qualify to the final round because they played well, and luck was on their side. Everyone would accept that PSG play very well as well but to no avail. All the shot on target refused to enter the goal net it prefers to hit the ball instead of entering the net. However, i still see Dortmund as a worthy opponent to face Madrid because i am expecting Real Madrid to win tomorrow.

And you don't have to say PSG do not desire to win the game. We all saw their performance it was wonderful. Football sometimes can be very complicated even at your home luck couldn't fall on your side.

PSG played good and they deserved to have an equalizer goal in this match and even win this match to equalize aggregated result. They deserved to play more than 90 minutes after two teams draw each other in aggregated result. Mbappe finally will leave PSG without any Champions League title after only one failed final match with them, years ago. It's very disappointed match for Mbappe and PSG after all missed opportunities in this match.

Very unfortunately, Dortmund got a lot of luckiness in this match and they will have another Champions League final. They will wait for their opponent name in the final, that can be either Real Madrid or Bayern Munich. This season comes very closely to a final match between two clubs from Bundesliga.

Just like I said. Dortmund scores another goal in order to advance to the final and yeah i never expected PSG was not even scoring a single goal here. Congratulations to Dortmund; Terzic played defensively against PSG and it's worked. As you can see, PSG is once again the unluckiest club this season due to the high number of shots that hit the crossbar and it happens many times. There's nothing special about Dortmund but this club is very consistent despite the fact many people were underrating it.

Matt scored the goal with a header. PSG is full of star players, but it lacks a winning mentality. The defenders will be held accountable because none prevented Matt Hummels from scoring from the corner kick. PSG once again demonstrated how inferior the best club in one league is to another club from the better league.

It's possible that Dortmund and Bayern Munich will face off again, similar to the UCL 2013 final and it feels like that madrid is gonna face difficulty soon. Real Madrid may be the favorite to win the next leg, but who knows if Bayern will surprise us.
The goal bar was extremely helpful to Dortmund in preventing PSG from scoring any goals. Dembele was completely underperforming in that game.

This result may be a surprise for some people, but not for me. I have said before that PSG progressed to semi-final was not a brilliant manner due to they won against 10-men Barcelona at Camp Nou after a loss at their own home. Many people stuck on a bad season Dortmund having in Bundesliga while ignoring the fact that Dortmund have a different form in Champions League.

I think PSG is really spoiled by their dominance in Ligue 1 that makes them not having competitiveness manner when they play in Champions League games. Dortmund is having a complicated season that makes them having to have full focus on making progressions and improvements. This different mindset reflects on the pitch, and the result was in favor for the team with stronger mindset and desire to win.

After the 1st leg's match I was almost sure that Dortmund would make it to the finals. PSG were a better team than Dortmund but they have had a weak performance lately both in the Ligue 1 and Champions league. PSG did pressured Dortmund a lot who were playing defensive. PSG also got unlucky a few times, hitting timber or missing the post by inches while dortmund scored on a corner through header. It was unfortunate for Barcelona to have knocked off by PSG, They would have made a better competition to whoever wins in the next semis. Anyone winning between Real Madrid and Bayren Munich would have better chance of prevailing against Dortmund.

Unfortunately, once again my prediction was not right.
I was expecting to see a much better performer from PSG and I was hoping to see PSG winning this match against Dortmund since they are playing at home and they had much better and more expensive players.
This way PSG could be in the Champions League final match for the first time and this could be a great achievement for them and specifically for this coach Enrique. But it seems Mbappe's last chance to be in the final match with PSG fails and he will leave the team without any Champions League achievements.
However, one good reason for Dortmund to have this good performance was the great defensive performance they had against PSG.

I think PSG had a lesser odd and even bookmakers were so sure PSG would win especially when they are at the advantage of playing at home but they failed us all who believed in them. The odds varied from platform to platform but there was no much difference. I am so disappointed in them not because i bet on them but because i want Kylian Mbappe to win the champions league or even reach the finals but Dortmund was the team that stopped them from reaching the final.

I argued with someone a while ago or was it yesterday about PSG winning and qualifying to the finals and he was so sure that Dortmund would come out victorious and was so confident that bookmakers were mistaking when they favored PSG in splitting the odds but I disagreed. I hope he was able to bet on Dortmund winning and not get discouraged by my comments and predictions.

Congratulations to Borrussia Dortmund on their victory and qualification.
The odds from the casino i used was: 1. 1.50, X. 4.90, 2. 5.50
