DORTMUND, Germany (AP) — Borussia Dortmund forward Niclas Füllkrug scored in a 1-0 win over Paris Saint-Germain in the first leg of their Champions League semifinal on Wednesday.
Dortmund defender Nico Schlotterbeck sent a long pass over the top for Füllkrug to control brilliantly with his first touch before firing it past PSG goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma with his next in the 36th minute.
It gives Dortmund a narrow advantage before the teams play again in the second leg in Paris next Tuesday.
PSG defender Lucas Hernández went off injured after trying to stop Füllkrug from scoring. It looked like Hernández suffered a left leg injury.
The winners of the two-leg tie will play either Real Madrid or Bayern Munich in the final in London on June 1. The old rivals drew 2-2 in their semifinal first leg in Munich on Tuesday.
