Rapid Rail: KL Sentral-Medan Tuanku monorail service suspended, feeder bus and trains deployed after tree falls on track along Jalan Sultan IsmailMats Hummels headed in the only goal as Borussia Dortmund stunned Paris Saint-Germain in their Champions League semi-final second leg yesterday, winning 1-0.
It will be their first final since 2013 when, remarkably, the match was also played at Wembley and Jurgen Klopp’s Dortmund lost to Bayern.Hummels played in that final and here, 11 years later, he was the hero as Dortmund built on the advantage given to them by Niclas Fuellkrug’s goal in the first leg.
He will leave when his contract expires after this season and had been hoping to play his last game for the club in the June 1 final. “We got so close and we wanted to get to the final. But we had to win tonight and be more clinical, and we were not.” Dortmund would have been bracing themselves for an onslaught from kick-off, but that did not transpire.
In fact it was Dortmund who had the best chance of the first half, when Karim Adeyemi led a counterattack before seeing his shot saved by Gianluigi Donnarumma.They should have been ahead two minutes after the restart, when Ramos touched on a ball driven into the box by Mbappe, but Warren Zaire-Emery contrived to hit the post from close range.PSG cheaply conceded a corner, and Julian Brandt’s delivery from the Dortmund right was headed in by Hummels.
