It was Haaland’s first goals in the premier class for Borussia. In the preliminary round, he had scored eight times for RB Salzburg in six appearances. In the Bundesliga, he has eight goals after five games for BVB. “It’s a natural force,” said BVB managing director Hans-Joachim Watzke about the Norwegian.

BVB is now in a good starting position for the second leg on March 11 in Paris. “We can also do something in Paris,” said trainer Lucien Favre at the station Sky, “We know we did a good job, we gave everything.” It was only half time, but warned Dortmund international Emre Can.

Tuchel congratulated colleague Favre and disappeared into the cabin after the first loss after 23 games. Neymar’s goal (75th) could not change that either. If they retire in the round of 16 despite a contract with PSG that runs until 2021, Tuchel could face an open future.

The PSG coach, who left Dortmund in 2017 after a broken relationship with the club management, just like Favre chose a tactic that also showed respect for the quality of the rival. With opposing possession of the ball, a compact defense was the order of the day. Both teams mostly retreated far into their own half, trying to prevent the opponent’s offensive lines from developing at all.

The guests did not have more than one chance due to a free kick in the eleventh minute by Neymar, who was disappointing as well as world champion Kylian Mbappé. Tuchel looked anything but satisfied, repeatedly directing his team from the sidelines. The Dortmund team only needed a little time to get used to the surprising PSG triple chain in the defense.

However, there is no real fireworks from the side of the Borussia. “Very special things can develop in this stadium,” said Tuchel before the kick-off. In the first 45 minutes, a slight plus developed for the Dortmunders, who were primarily driven by Jadon Sancho. PSG played boring football.

Up to the 65th minute. Mbappé, Neymar and Angel di Maria flashed their skills briefly. Roman Bürki was there. The BVB fans took a deep breath. And cheered only a short time later. Cross from the right side by Achraf Hakimi, direct acceptance from Sancho, which was blocked and deflected. Haaland couldn’t miss the dust from a very short distance. The Norwegian was celebrated cross-legged like a Buddha in a BVB jersey.

What started off unspectacular was gripping in front of 66,099 spectators. On the other hand, Mbappé shone with his speed and ball control in his best scene and put the ball on Neymar. But then these special things happened in the BVB stadium, which Tuchel had feared before. From 20 meters Haaland catapulted the ball into the PSG goal.
