Borussia Dortmund secured their place in the Champions League quarter-finals after a hard-fought victory against PSV Eindhoven, with goals from Jadon Sancho and Marco Reus sealing the win.
Sancho opened the scoring early in the third minute with a precise strike from outside the box, setting the tone for Dortmund’s attacking display. Despite having a goal ruled out, Dortmund maintained their pressure, ultimately capitalizing on a late mistake by PSV.
Substitute Reus capitalized on a defensive error in stoppage time, calmly slotting past the goalkeeper to secure Dortmund’s progression.
While PSV had their chances, including missed opportunities by Hirving Lozano, Dortmund’s clinical finishing proved decisive in the end.
Sancho, who was named Player of the Match, continued his impressive form with a crucial goal, further solidifying his impact since returning to Dortmund on loan in January. However, his night ended prematurely due to a suspected hamstring injury, raising concerns for Dortmund’s upcoming fixtures.
Reflecting on the victory, Sancho expressed gratitude for his team’s performance and highlighted the importance of securing the win for Dortmund.
