Home field advantage helps Dortmund not be afraid of PSG in the first leg. The German team confidently held the ball and dominated the match right after the opening whistle.

However, the home team’s attacks on the ball were only really sharp after they began to retreat to play defensive counter-attacks from around the 30th minute. Before that, PSG created many dangerous situations with their dynamism. Dembele .

The moment PSG started to control the game was also the moment they conceded a goal. In the 35th minute, Fullkurg scored to open the scoring for Dortmund.

The German striker escaped to catch Schlotterbeck’s precise long pass and then comfortably shot past goalkeeper Donnarumma in a face-to-face position. PSG’s central defender duo Marquinhos – Hernandez completely “forgot” Fullkrug in this situation.

Immediately after the loss, PSG encountered additional difficulties when Lucas Hernandez left the field injured. In the last 10 minutes of the first half, PSG was confused by Dortmund’s fierce football style. They only stood firm thanks to the excellence of goalkeeper Donnarumma.

A controversial situation also appeared at the end of the first half when Marquinhos blocked Maatsen, causing Maatsen to fall in the penalty area. But the referee did not give Dortmund 11 meters.

The second half opened with a series of regrets for PSG fans. In the 51st minute, Mbappe s𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁fully dribbled the ball on the left wing and then dangerously curled the ball into the far post. Hakimi’s subsequent shot attempt continued to bounce the ball into the near post.

PSG had many more good opportunities in the next 30 minutes. But Fabian Ruiz and Dembele both missed out in an unbelievable way.

Meanwhile, PSG’s number one star, Mbappe, is quite quiet. The rebounding shot at the beginning of the second half was a rare moment of brilliance for Mbappe in this match.

On the other hand, PSG was also lucky to escape defeat with at least 2 dangerous shots in Dortmund’s penalty area.

In the end, Dortmund maintained the 1-0 score until the end of the match. This result gives them more or less an advantage.
