In a stunning upset, Borussia Dortmund have secured a spot in this year’s Champions League final.
The Bundesliga underdogs defeated Paris Saint-Germain 1-0 at the Parc des Princes on Tuesday night, setting up a thrilling finale against either Bayern Munich or Real Madrid.
The decisive goal came early in the second half, as Matt Hummels rose to meet a corner kick and headed it past Gianluigi Donnarumma. The shutout marked Dortmund’s second consecutive clean sheet against PSG, following a 1-0 win in the first leg at Signal Iduna Park last week.
Dortmund now awaits the winner of the Bayern Munich-Real Madrid semifinal. The German and Spanish powerhouses played to a 2-2 draw at the Allianz Arena in the first leg, setting the stage for an electrifying second leg. Will Dortmund face their arch-rivals Bayern in an all-German final, or the Spanish giants Real Madrid? One thing is certain: the Champions League final just got a whole lot more interesting.
