If on the day of the Wembley final Borussia Dortmund’s players turned out in plain clothes to stretch their legs in Hyde Park or Piccadilly Circus, many of their players would probably be unrecognizable to local football fans . Types like Kobel, Ryerson, Schlotterbeck, Brandt either Füllkrug, starters in Paris, are not shining stars but they are one step away from winning the Champions League. And they achieved this by making an art of creating suffering. They already did it at their stadium in the first leg, where they won 1-0, containing the push of PSG, who caught a counterattack to score the winning goal. The French team hit the post twice that day, while last night they had four shots on the woodwork.
Lots of bad luck for the team Luis Enriquewherein Mbappe contributed less than expected for a star of his level and in which he highlighted a huge Vitinha. But above all what stood out at the Parc des Princes was Dortmund’s competitive spirit and defensive survivability, combined with their ability to do damage. Because the Germans scored again, with Hummels finishing a corner. From that goal, which came in the 50th minute, PSG surrounded the goal of Kobel. And there came their festival of shots on the posts and, likewise, Dortmund’s Numantine resistance. He survived by taking a lot of balls into his area, with two blocks in five without breaking down. There are days when you have to suffer and if you have a job you are usually lucky. What happened to Barça last season, but not currently.
