Edge-of-Your-Seat Second Leg Ends with 5-4 Aggregate Score
Dortmund Completes Comeback, Eliminating Atlético Madrid
In a pulsating Champions League quarter-final second leg, Borussia Dortmund emerged victorious against Atlético Madrid on Tuesday night. The home side rallied to a 4-2 win, overcoming a first-leg deficit to clinch a 5-4 aggregate triumph.
The match started with Atlético Madrid holding a slender 1-0 lead from the first leg. However, Dortmund roared out of the gates, scoring twice in the first 13 minutes through Karim Adeyemi and Donyell Malen. The away side responded with a goal from Antoine Griezmann, but the Yellow and Blacks extended their lead before the break with a strike from Jude Bellingham.
In the second half, Atlético Madrid came out with renewed determination and pulled one back through Angel Correa. But Dortmund remained relentless and sealed their victory with a late goal from Julian Brandt. The final whistle brought a eruption of joy from the home crowd as Dortmund secured their semi-final spot.
The win marks a remarkable comeback for Dortmund, who had to overturn a first-leg deficit and played with 10 men for the final 20 minutes after Emre Can's dismissal. It also ends Atlético Madrid's impressive run in the competition and leaves them to focus on securing a top-four finish in La Liga.
