Borussia Dortmund-Atletico Madrid 4-2, Germans in the Champions League semi-final – SulPanaro

(Adnkronos) – Borussia Dortmund beats Atletico Madrid 4-2 in the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals, overturns the 2-1 defeat suffered in the first leg and flies to the semi-finals 11 years after the last appearance between the last 4 of the tournament. The team coached by Terzic in a ‘crazy’ challenge first goes ahead 2-0, then gets caught at 2-2 and finally wins 4-2. Thus ends the fourth semi-final for Cholo Simeone at the helm of the Colchoneros. Tense and well played match by the two teams with sensational missed opportunities from their respective attackers. In the 3rd minute Adeyemi runs down the left and crosses low for Sabitzer, who controls and fires a sure shot from two steps but Azpilicueta saves the Iberian goal. In the 5th minute Morata devours the goal on the counterattack by sending Kobel to the side. In five minutes Dortmund overturned the result of the first leg and went ahead 2-0: in the 34th minute with Brandt served by Hummels and in the 39th minute with a perfect diagonal shot Maatsen scored the second goal. Atletico, however, did not give up and got back on track at the start of the second half. In the 49th minute Mats Hummels scored an own goal from a corner and in the 64th minute it was 2-2 thanks to the new substitute Correa after a counterattack in the area. But in three minutes Dortmund turns the game around again. In the 71st minute, Füllkrug scored before Gimenez and headed the ball beautifully to the far post. Then in the 74th minute Sabitzer made it 4-2 as he found the left footed shot from the edge of the corner into the corner. Atletico doesn’t have it anymore and risks collapse: Oblak saves again from Fullkrug and Sabizer, but it’s the yellow and blacks who go to the semi-finals. —[email protected] (Web Info)
