Borussia Dortmund v PSV Eindhoven: Champions League last 16, second leg – live
Hello world! It’s all to play for at Signal Iduna Park, after a 1-1 draw in a first leg that PSV probably shaded but couldn’t win – “An open game, very intense,” according to their coach, Peter Bosz, once of Dormund. The Dutch side have cantered to a 10-point lead in the Eredivisie, have lost just once since November in all competitions and in Luuk de Jong have the top scorer in Dutch football (encouragingly, PSV haven’t been involved in a goalless draw since January 2023, and before that not since April 2022), and it was the Dutchman who equalised for them in the first game. True fact alert: PSV have won six and lost seven of their European knockout ties against German teams, which is quite a handy record, but they have only ever won a single European game in Germany – and they have lost 14. Donyell Malen, who scored Borussia’s goal in the first leg (and once of PSV) said yesterday he considers his side to be favourites, but then perhaps he shouldn’t be listened to, given he also came up with the following: “We haven’t been thinking about a penalty shootout, but of course we’ve been practising.” So not thinking about them, but practising them. Right, sure. Got it.
