In a thrilling first leg of their Champions League semi-final, Borussia Dortmund clinched a narrow victory against Paris St-Germain, all thanks to an exceptional goal from Niclas Fullkrug.
The German striker demonstrated his prowess by expertly controlling a long ball with his right foot, followed by an explosive left-footed shot that found the back of the net, handing Dortmund a crucial 36th-minute lead.
Despite PSG's relentless efforts to level the score in the second half, with Kylian Mbappe's near miss hitting the post and Achraf Hakimi's shot rattling the woodwork, Dortmund fiercely defended their advantage.
Fullkrug had a chance to double the lead but narrowly missed from close range. Dortmund's direct and aggressive style of play proved effective against the formidable Ligue 1 champions, as they capitalized on their chances.
PSG manager Luis Enrique rallied his team during halftime, inspiring a spirited comeback attempt. Mbappe and Hakimi both came agonizingly close to finding the equalizer with their attempts.
Former Dortmund player Ousmane Dembele squandered a golden opportunity to level the score late in the game.
Fullkrug believed he deserved a penalty after being fouled while attempting to connect with a cross. With the 1-0 scoreline, anticipation builds for an electrifying second leg clash at Parc des Princes on Tuesday.
