Yesterday, Borussia Dortmund triumphed over Barcelona 3-1 in the second leg of the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals, but were ultimately eliminated from the tournament after a 0-4 loss in the first leg. However, Dortmund’s victory broke an impressive streak for Barcelona.
In the match, Barcelona suffered their first defeat with experienced Polish goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny in goal. The former Juventus keeper had gone unbeaten for 22 matches, during which Barcelona earned 19 wins and 3 draws.
In the semi-finals, Hansi Flick’s team will face the winner of the Inter vs. Bayern match. The first leg in Munich saw Inter secure a 2-1 win.
Additionally, it’s worth noting that Borussia Dortmund forward Serhou Guirassy made history by becoming the first African player to score a hat-trick against Barcelona in the Champions League.
