Follow the action from the 1/8 final of the Playoffs Champions League minute by minute

AND THE END OF THE MATCH IN DORTMUUUUUND!

Goals from Adeyemi and Haraldsson are enough to leave us with a return match with everything still to be decided.

Yellow card for Gross

Great entry on Bouaddi and it is very clear.

Uuuuuuuuuuy Fernández-Pardooooo!

The Spanish-Belgian made a good run down the left and made the pass to kill it, but Schlotterbeck saved it again. Immense.

4 minutes added time!

We go to 94 at Signal Induna Park.

Out with David...

The Canadian now takes a shot that Schlotterbeck blocks. The French continue to be on top.

Couto finally entered

By Ryerson, in the previous trade saga.

Dortmund keep trying

But there is a wall in front. The visiting defence is ironclad.

Providential Sabitzer and Caaaan!

He was going alone against goalkeeper David after a good pass from Diakité, but the captain blocked it first, and then the Austrian arrived to finish eradicating the danger.

In the end there is nothing...

Sánchez Martínez restarts the game and Lille comes on.

Svensson is leaving...

Dortmund take advantage of this to make a double substitution. Bensebaini and Reyna come on, Svensson and Brandt go off.

There could be a red card!

André Gomes' foul on Svensson is being reviewed. He steps on him from behind, unintentionally, of course, and that makes the Nordic defender's knee get stuck. We'll see. For the moment, the Dortmund player will not be able to continue...

André Gomes has now passed by

He came in very hard on Svensson, but hard and late. He hurt his knee.

Another one from Lilleeee!

Another through ball for Haraldsson, who loses the duel with Schlotterbeck on the byline. The Dortmund centre-back was immense today...

There is not much reaction from Dortmund...

It is Lille who are leading the attacks, without stopping.

Double change for Lille

Makau and Ismaily leave, Bakker and André Gomes enter.

What an entry by Bouaddi

Stomp on Schlotterbeck now that he could have been booked. Ball to Dortmund.

Ooo ...

Ismaily passed the ball to the Canadian, who was alone inside the area, but he did not control it well and it went wide. It was also a clear shot.

Total exchange of blows

The ball moves from top to bottom. Lille is more secure, though.

Dortmund wants to be the protagonist

But he is not winning duels in the midfield.

Uuuuuuuuuuy Férnandez-Pardooooo!

Oh, the Spanish-Belgian who received a long ball well to go one-on-one, but Schlotterbeck recovered perfectly. Oh.

Dortmund is coming!

Spaces everywhere, things are going to happen.

This is going crazy...

Because Dortmund takes a step forward and Lille rushes.

Ethan Mbappé retires

'KO' muscularly, enters Fernandez-Pardo, recently almost naturalized as a Spaniard for the under-21.

Ooooooooooo Braaaaaandt!

Dortmund responded immediately with a pass from Brandt to Guirassy, ​​who was saved by Alexandro. Clear, but Lille did well.

HARALDSSOOOOOON GOAL! LILLEEEEEE GOOOOOOL!

Makau received the ball with his back to the goal, turned around and passed it to Haraldsson, who, one-on-one, touched it with his toe and sent it into the back of the net past Kobel. How the tie is going...

Change in Dortmund

Beier enters, Gittens leaves.

Ismaily is going too far...

Haradlsson threads the ball behind Svensson, but nothing.

Uy Adeyemi....

Diakité called for a foul, and Adeyemi himself went alone in front of the goalkeeper... Sánchez Martínez once again denies what the Germans are asking for.

And Lille is back to playing from behind

Monologue by the team from the city bordering Belgium. Dortmund, running after the ball.

Ethan Mbappé asks for a hand!

Free-kick from the Real Madrid player's brother hits the Dortmund wall... Sánchez Martínez says there's nothing wrong with that.

Missing a pretty girl for Lilleeee!

Emre Can brings down David, who was almost one-on-one, but he was not the last man. The German captain receives a yellow card.

Very clever Haraldsson

This now causes a foul again when the ball comes out. Lille breathes.

Coooorta Diakiteeee!

What a mess Lille made with the free kick and how they took it... And the German team came out on the counterattack. Diakité made a save and it came to nothing.

A nice miss for Lille!

Ryerson takes down Haraldsson. The French team goes.

The VAR reviewed it...

But no, contact is not enough for today's Spanish refereeing.

David calls for a penalty!

Brought down inside the area by Schlotterbeck after both of their legs got caught... Sánchez Martínez, for the moment, is giving nothing.

Ooo ...

David had the first chance after a combination with Haraldsson, but Ryerson blocked it at the penalty spot, and it finished first, near Kobel Ethan Mbappé's right post,

Lille is playing again

Now he has more difficulties from behind since Dortmund have moved forward.

And everything remains the same...

Dortmund were flashing, Lille were in possession and were erratic up front.

Meunier out...

Good transition from Lille, which ended with Mbappé passing to Meunier, who doubled him, but the Belgian was offside.

Touch and touch Lille

He never stops combining, although far from the opponent's goal.

Strong Sabitzer now

Taking down Haraldsson, who was going to mount the counterattack for his team, but of course, he couldn't.

Lille is already losing...

With a ball from André to Haraldsson.

AND THE SECOND HALF STARTS IN DORTMUUUUND!

Lille put the ball into play.

We started without changes

Same eleven as from the start. The ball is rolling.

AND FINAAAAAL OF THE FIRST HALF IN THE SIGNAL INDUNA PAAAARK!

Adeyemi's goal is enough to give Kovac's men the lead.

GOAL DISMISSED FOR DORTMUUUUUUND!

Brandt crosses from a second consecutive corner, Can heads it to the far post and Gross pushes it home. The German is offside with one foot, but is banned.

1 minute added!

We're going to 46 at Signal Induna Park.

And the usual script returns

Lille playing or trying to play, and Dortmund looking for the central lane, with Guirassy dropping back to receive and holding back so that his team could look for the high clearances.

Get out, Meunieeeer!

Good play by the Belgian, doing two one-twos with two teammates on the edge of the box, and from a very wide right corner, he shot without looking, sending it into the side of Kobel's goal net.

Dortmund now plays from behind

The German team's wingers are cutting off their runs, but Lille is still well positioned...

Adeyemi rushes...

This is what Dortmund want: to wait for Lille to counterattack. No one has passed to the goalscorer so far.

Nothing fresh from Lille...

He is back in action, but not in the best possible way. Good job Schlotterbeck.

Ooo ...

The Dortmund centre-back drove to the edge of the box and fired a right-footed shot just wide of Chevalier's right post.

Holy crap Emre Can!

Mbappé curled it in from the left to the far post, and the German captain let it through to the byline... But Ismaily was alone, alone. The Brazilian was just short of control and was left one-on-one.

Ready Haraldsson now

He got confused with the ball while driving backwards and caused Adeyemi to foul him. Not many things are going right for Lille...

Ooo ...

Diakité makes a mistake in the ball's release, Brand goes one-on-one, and makes the pass of death. Nobody arrives... It's very clear.

Brandt is going too far

A through ball to Ryerson, who was coming in alone. Lille will take the goal.

Ok now Gross

Taking it away from Makau, who hesitated to go out on the counterattack alone. The yellow roller continues.

Dortmund back in control

He gives the impression that he is controlling the game perfectly. He touches and leaves possession whenever he wants...

Catch Kobel now

Mbappé's dangerous cross bounced into the box, but the Swiss player caught it without any problems. Lille tried again, but it didn't have much impact.

Catch Chevalier!

Good counterattack by Dortmund which was finished off by Ryerson with a cross that floated too far.

Everything goes back to how it was before

Lille are playing in the opponent's half, Dortmund are waiting to counterattack. We'll see why there are spaces.

Ooo ...

Lille's number 17 took a left-footed shot from the edge of the area after the short corner had been taken. His shot went just wide of Kobel's left post.

Ethan Mbappé is going...

From a corner, after an attempt by Lille on the right. We'll see.

Lille is stuck

There is a total lack of control in their lines, and Dortmund are taking advantage of this, with space.

Chevalier Raffle...

And the ball is now Dortmund's. Lille is biting under pressure.

Lille tries to recover...

He is playing from behind, not very convinced after the goal.

AND ADEYEMIIIIII'S GOAL! DORTMUUUUUUND GOOOOOOOOOL!

What a goal! Brandt takes it from a corner, the French defence repels it, and it reaches Adeyemi even further from the edge of the box. He shoots with his instep as it falls, and sends it low, powerful, unstoppable to Chevalier's left post. A great goal.

Ooo ...

He gets away from his marker after facing him and tries to pass the ball, but the French defense covers him up.

What risks are Lille taking?

He doesn't play long at all. They might pay for it... But for now, it's a pleasure.

Now, possession is Dortmund's.

But without being able to influence Lille's well-established lines.

Without many ideas the locals

In attack, but without the ball, the pressure is very high. As we say, Kovac's team is not very fluid in the final third.

Try to touch Dortmund

They don't have much of a ball, but Kovac's men are moving forward whenever they can. Now, they are playing in the opponent's half.

Get out the Lilleeeeeee!

Good Gittens leading a transition down the centre lane, and opening up for Brandt. He puts it to the far post and Bouaddi arrives to control and take it out.

Dortmund steals!

On constant occasions, but the German team's ball release is not good at all. Génésio's men recover again.

And Lille plays again

In the opponent's half, avoiding the task of taking the ball out from behind.

Dortmund presses high

Leaving spaces behind and giving Lille a run for their money.

Dortmund are pushing hard up front because they know that Lille are always playing well. The French are not making any mistakes at the moment, always on the edge.

Guirassy is out ! What a great ball filtered by Gittens into the area, he finishes with his left foot but misses the goal. Very clear.

Lille are leaving the lanes very free, accumulating a lot of people inside, and that makes Dortmund press to activate Adeyemi

Giant Emre Can preventing Jonathan David from advancing in the area. Ethan put together the counterattack well

Alexsandro up. The centre-back takes a chance and gets into the attack with a left-footed shot from afar. Over the crossbar.

The game is very open and nobody is holding anything back in these first minutes.

Dortmund are very far ahead and Ethan has already had two good starts on the right. Keep an eye on that, the Frenchman is eager.

Dortmund puts a lot of pressure on when they lose in the opponent's half. They try to suffocate the German team in the early stages.

Adeyemi went out. He went inside and his left-footed shot from the edge of the box went just wide of the post.

Good attack from Lille led by Ethan Mbappé, but Meunier's cross is not finished and then André's shot is blocked by a defender

Ryerson is called for a foul on offense when he was starting off on the right

This is starting now. Good luck to Sánchez Martínez, the Spanish referee who is in charge of this today.
