Borussia Dortmund Take First-Leg Advantage in Champions League Semifinal
Dortmund 1-0 PSG
Dortmund Take Narrow Lead to Paris for Second Leg
Borussia Dortmund emerged victorious from the first leg of their UEFA Champions League semifinal clash with Paris Saint-Germain, securing a narrow 1-0 win at home.
The German side took the lead shortly before the break through Karim Adeyemi, who latched onto a pinpoint pass from Jude Bellingham and finished coolly past Gianluigi Donnarumma.
PSG struggled to find their rhythm throughout the match, with Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe largely kept at bay by the Dortmund defense. The hosts had several opportunities to extend their lead but were unable to convert their chances.
The result leaves Dortmund with a slender advantage heading into the second leg at the Parc des Princes on March 8. The German side will aim to build on their lead and secure a place in the final, while PSG will be determined to turn the tide and progress to the next round.
