Hummels' Goal Sends Dortmund to 2-0 Aggregate Victory
Paris Saint-Germain's hopes of reaching the Champions League final were dashed on Tuesday night as they were defeated 1-0 by Borussia Dortmund at the Parc des Princes. The German side progressed to the final with a 2-0 aggregate victory, thanks to a late goal from Mats Hummels.
PSG started the game brightly and had several chances to take the lead in the first half. However, they were unable to find the back of the net, and Dortmund grew into the game as the half wore on. The visitors took the lead five minutes into the second half when Hummels headed home a corner from Marco Reus. PSG pushed for an equalizer but were unable to break down the Dortmund defense. The German side held on for a famous victory, and they will now face Bayern Munich in the final on August 23.
Dortmund's victory was a major upset, as PSG were the heavy favorites going into the game. However, the German side showed great determination and resilience, and they were ultimately rewarded for their efforts. Hummels' goal was particularly impressive, as it came at a crucial time in the game. The German defender has been a key player for Dortmund this season, and his goal on Tuesday night was a fitting reward for his performances.
PSG will be bitterly disappointed to have lost the game, but they can take some solace from the fact that they reached the semi-finals for the first time in their history. The French side has made great progress in recent years, and they will be hoping to go one step further next season.
