CL thriller against Lille
Lille against Borussia Dortmund from 18:45 LIVE
Close, but still: Borussia Dortmund have fought their way into the quarter-finals of the Champions League! Last year's struggling finalists won the second leg of the round of 16 tie at OSC Lille 2:1 (0:1) on Wednesday with ÖFB team player Marcel Sabitzer after falling behind. The first leg had ended 1:1.
As a reward, BVB, who are only tenth in the league, now await a showdown with FC Barcelona, who had already eliminated Benfica Lisbon on Tuesday.
Dortmund completely missed the start in the north of France and conceded an early slapstick goal (5'). After Karim Adeyemi lost possession, the ball passed between the legs of BVB defender Waldemar Anton to Jonathan David.
Lille's star striker also scored between the legs of the slightly deflected Nico Schlotterbeck - and Dortmund goalkeeper Gregor Kobel also conceded a nasty-looking "Gurkerl". It was David's seventh goal of the season in the top flight.
Penalty whistle turned the tide
Dortmund missed several good chances to equalize in the first half. Serhou Guirassy failed to put the ball in the net from close range (20') and Pascal Groß hit the top of the crossbar with his head (45.+1).
After the break, a fortunate penalty was awarded: Emre Can converted after a minimal push from ex-Dortmund player Thomas Meunier on Guirassy (54').
Maximilian Beier made the difference when he slammed the ball under the crossbar after a pass from Guirassy (65'). Adeyemi had hit the aluminum shortly before (63'). Lille pressed in vain for an equalizer in the final stages. Sabitzer played through in midfield.
