Borussia Dortmund reaches the Champions League final

Dortmund continues its incredible run in this season's Champions League, reaching the final after stunning Paris Saint-Germain.

Borussia Dortmund continued its incredible run in this season's Champions League, reaching the final after stunning Paris Saint-Germain in the semifinals. Jadon Sancho scored the only goal of the game in the 55th minute, giving Dortmund a 2-1 aggregate victory.

It is the first time Dortmund has reached the Champions League final since 2013, when it lost to Bayern Munich. PSG, meanwhile, was seeking its first-ever Champions League title.

The match was played in front of a sellout crowd at Signal Iduna Park in Dortmund, Germany. Dortmund took the lead in the 32nd minute when Marco Reus scored from close range. PSG equalized in the 58th minute when Kylian Mbappé scored from the penalty spot.

Sancho's goal in the 55th minute proved to be the winner. Dortmund held on for the victory, and will now face either Manchester City or Real Madrid in the final.

Dortmund's victory is a remarkable achievement, considering the club's struggles in recent years. Dortmund finished seventh in the Bundesliga last season, and was knocked out of the Champions League in the group stage.

However, Dortmund has been in excellent form this season, and is now just one game away from winning its first Champions League title. The final will be played on June 10 at the Ataturk Olympic Stadium in Istanbul, Turkey.
