UCL: Footballers react as Dortmund beat PSG

Borussia Dortmund has qualified for the Champions League final by defeating Paris Saint-Germain 1-0 in the semi-final second leg on Tuesday.

“The belief was there. We spoke about the game against Eindhoven (Dortmund’s last-16 tie) how short the road to London is. It’ll take us a bit of time to realise that, but we’re looking forward to it very much.”

“Jule (Brandt) served it nicely on my head. Of course we’ll be happy to take it. I haven’t scored many goals in the Champions League. I think five. A good time to stock up.”

“We didn’t score the goals. They scored two goals, one from a corner and another from deep (in the first leg)… The fans were wonderful and we wanted to go all the way to Wembley with them.”
