    FT: PSG 2-0 (10) Dortmund!! (agg 3-2) It's all over at the Parc des Princes! PSG finally make the quarters thanks to Neymar and Bernat's goals in the first half! Dortmund tried in the second half, but they lack the killer touch in the final third. Haaland didn't have his day and things turned ugly towards the end with plenty of fouls. Emre was harshly sent off and Dortmund were knocked out of the tournament. That's all from us, thanks for your company and see you again soon!

    Neymar and Di Maria have also seen yellow. I think Taylor has misjudged that. Can only deserved a yellow.
Card

Red card

a B. Dortmund
  • 89'
    Straight red to Can! I really don't know why. After he squares up to Neymar, there's a slight push on Neymar who goes down very, very easily. Not a red for me. VAR stays quiet.
  • 88'
    Can fouls Neymar on this near side, it's just a simple foul, but the two then square up and everyone just runs in for absolutely no reason.
  • 88'
    Mass fight here! It's all kicking off on the touchline!
  • 87'
    Dortmund sub: Gotze is on for Achraf. Final roll of the dice by Lucien Favre.

    Brandt again!!! He has a pop from outside the boz, it takes a wicked deflection and the ball lands on the top of the net.

    HT: PSG 2-0 Dortmund (agg 3-2) !! Half-time in Paris and PSG lead through goals from Neymar and Bernat. PSG have had more possession and territory, but they've only had the two goals plus a Cavani chance at 0-0. Dortmund picked up after going 1-0 down, but PSG have not been troubled much. Sancho has been their best player going forward. Back for more in a bit!

  • 45'
    Dortmund now need one for extra-time.

  • 44'
    it seems to be a blow to the right eye.
  • 43'
    Marquinhos is down here after taking a blow to the face. It was a stray arm by Haaland and he could have been given a second yellow had it not been an English ref.
  • 42'
    By the way, Neymar celebrated the goal Haaland style. I think he wanted to make a point after the Norwegian's brace in the first game.
  • 41'

  • 39'
    Shots: 4-3, on target: 3-2.

    Good play by Dortmund! The Germans threaten down PSG's right with some quic passing and the move ends with Sancho hitting at Navas from a tight angle! I think a pass for Haaland may have been better.

    Di Maria goes down wanting a penalty, but Taylor isn't interested. Nothing at all.

    The players are out here at an empty Parc des Princes and the anthem is being played!
  • PRVW
    Just a reminder that we will only have extra-time here if PSG win 2-1. Will PSG finally get past the hurdle of the last 16?
  • PRVW
    Verratti and Meunier got booked in the first game so they are out through accumulation of yellows while Mbappe has been suffering from angina. He can come on later on if needed.
  • PRVW
    PSG make five changes from the first leg. Silva (injured), Verratti and Meunier (both suspended), Kurzawa and Mbappe drop out. Bernat, Kehrer, Paredes, Sarabia and Cavani come into the side.
  • PRVW
    Dortmund field the same eleven which started the first leg back in 18th February.
  • PRVW
    It's 14 degrees at the Parc des Princes and this match is being held behind closed doors due to the coronavirus situation.
  • PRVW
    In case you didn't see the first leg, Dortmund won the first leg 2-1 and were the better side. Haaland got both goals for the German side while Neymar had drawn PSG level. That means a 1-0 win for PSG here will see Thomas Tuchel's men progress.
