It was an even start to the game, with both sides having chances to take the lead. However, it was Dortmund who eventually broke the deadlock in the 77th minute. A cross from the right found Hummels unmarked in the box, and the German international made no mistake with his header.

PSG pushed for an equalizer in the closing stages, but the Dortmund defense held firm to secure a vital victory. The German side will now be confident of reaching the final, while PSG will need to score at least twice in the second leg to keep their hopes alive.
