Füllkrug fires Dortmund to 1-0 win over Mbappé’s PSG in Champions League semifinal first leg
DORTMUND, Germany (AP) — Borussia Dortmund forward Niclas Füllkrug scored in a 1-0 win over Paris Saint-Germain in the first leg of their Champions League semifinal on Wednesday.
Dortmund defender Nico Schlotterbeck sent a long pass over the top for Füllkrug to control brilliantly with his first touch before firing it past PSG goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma with his next in the 36th minute.
It gives Dortmund a narrow advantage before the teams play again in the second leg in Paris next Tuesday.
PSG defender Lucas Hernández went off injured after trying to stop Füllkrug from scoring. It looked like Hernández suffered a left leg injury.
