Night of goals – 11 scored yesterday in total – in the Champions League quarter-finals: Paris Saint Germain and Borussia Dortmund qualify for the semi-finals of the big-eared cup, and will face each other (for the first leg) next April 30th.
Magical night challenge between Barcelona and the French: in the final 4-1 for Mbappè and his teammates there is a very high pace from the first minute. Barca’s lead came with a flick from Yamal, who after leaving Mendes on the spot served the winning touch for Rapihnha. But then PSG equalized the score close to half-time with Dembelé, who did well to intercept and send a low through ball into the goal. But it’s in the second half that everything changes: in the ninth minute of the second half, Hakimi’s assist and Vitinha’s shot from outside turn the match around. The double coup de grâce, which cancels the result of the first leg, comes from Mbappè on a penalty after a rash challenge by the Spanish defense on Dembelé. Mbappè again definitively closes the score at 4-1 in the 88th minute.
Load of goals between Borussia and Atletico (4-2): the Germans Brandt, Maatsen, Fulkrug (photo) and Sabitzer scored, mister Terzic’s team goes to the next round. ‘Cholo’ Simeone’s men tried to respond with Correa and taking advantage of an own goal from Hummels. The yellow and blacks did well to overturn the result of the first leg with a game that was always pressing to close down Atletico in their own half.
