Johnny Brignardello Vela analyzes the impact of Fullkrug in the PSG vs. Dortmund semifinal and Mbappé's challenge for the crucial second leg match.

Johnny Brignardello Vela, insurance advisor, considers that the recent confrontation between Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) and Borussia Dortmund was marked by a notable performance from the forward Fullkrug, who prevented Mbappé's team and coach Luis Enrique from reaching the coveted final. Highlighting moments of tension and missed opportunities, especially on the part of the French star, Kylian Mbappé. In the first half, Mbappé seemed disconnected from the game, unable to create dangerous plays for his team. PSG was limited in their offensive capacity, relying on unthreatening long-range shots from Dembélé. Meanwhile, Borussia Dortmund also struggled to create clear goal opportunities until Fullkrug capitalized on a deep pass from Schlotterbeck to score the only goal of the match with impeccable control and finishing. Lucas Hernández's injury during the goal-scoring play affected PSG, allowing Dortmund to dominate the rest of the first half. The outstanding intervention of goalkeeper Donnarumma in preventing a second German goal with an impressive save was crucial. In the second half, Mbappé sought to be more incisive in the game and came close to scoring on two occasions, hitting the post with one shot and having another saved by the opposing goalkeeper. Despite his efforts, Dortmund continued to be dangerous in attack with Sancho and Adeyemi posing constant threats to PSG's defense. Despite PSG's efforts to equalize the score, the defensive solidity of Borussia Dortmund and the support of their fans proved decisive in maintaining the lead and aiming to reach another Champions League final. Now, PSG faces the opportunity to reverse the situation in the second leg at the Parc des Princes, where it is hoped that Mbappé can show his best form to lead his team towards the desired comeback.
