Borussia has been in the LM final twice so far. In the 1996/97 season they dominated the competition, 16 years later they lost to Bayern at Wembley.

It is with the Bavarian giant that she could fight again at the same place, if he also manages the rematch on the field of Real Madrid. The first duel in Munich ended 2:2, the second leg is played on Wednesday.

Both teams already played in the group this season, PSG won 2:0 at home and drew 1:1 away. And Dortmund was able to learn.

Gunner Mbappé was guarded by four players in the first match and defended him. So in retaliation, he moved from the center of attack to the wing, believing that he would have more space there.

The beginning was tied to tactics again, the opening shots from both sides were not very dangerous. Only after the first half hour did something start to happen. The home team released Dembélé in the penalty area, but he overshot the goal.

The guests’ chances were much greater. Adeyemi made his way from the middle of the field to the goal, where he fired hard in the fall, Donnarumma kept PSG with a great save.

On the other side, Kobela checked Vitinho from afar. Borussia bravely defended their one-goal advantage, fouling only once in the first half.

The passage right after the break was key. The Parisians started the second half with an onslaught, Zaire-Emery had a great chance but only hit the post.

Dortmund was again more effective. Brandt crossed accurately from the corner kick, Hummels broke away from Beraldo and scored with a header from close range.

The 35-year-old defender became the main hero of the semi-finals, already in the first game he received the award for the best player.

“I’ve scored too few Champions League goals in my career, just five. Now was the right time to add another. From the second group game we believed we could win every game – and I see no reason why we shouldn’t win at Wembley now. We remained active even in the second leg, that was our recipe for success,” Hummels told DAZN.

The home team was also unlucky, Nuno Mendes stamped the post again. And that wasn’t all. In the end, Mbappé fired the ball into the crossbar, a minute later Vitinho did the same.

The goal structure saved the German team in the aggregate of the two matches for the sixth time, including the head-to-head matches in the group for the eighth time.

PSG players hit the post or crossbar fourteen times in the LM season and are still waiting in vain for their first triumph in the competition.

“Indescribable. After more than ten years I’m in the final again with Borussia. Dembélé and Hakimi dictated a tremendous pace and we suffered a lot. But we won, tomorrow no one will ask about shots on the post. The important thing is that Dortmund is in the final again. It’s just unbelievable,” said another veteran Marco Reus.

“Before the first game against Eindhoven, we talked for the first time about how short the trip to London could be. At that time, many were still confused. Last season we lost the German title in the last round at home, I’m glad that now we can give something back to the fans. With each we grew with the match and in the end we realized that we can be a team that will surprise everyone by advancing to the finals,” said coach Edin Terzic.
