Borussia Dortmund defies all predictions this year in the Champions League. The Germans, far from being favorites in the competition, managed to reach the final, notably by eliminating PSG in the semi-finals. Their two consecutive victories, at the Westfalenstadion (1-0) then at the Parc des Princes (0-1), allowed the Dortmund players to qualify for the final at Wembley. Before the end of the queen of European competitions on Saturday evening, Hans-Joachim Watzke, CEO of Dortmund, remembers this surprise qualification against PSG.
“Who gave a cent for Dortmund against PSG? Person. And we didn’t beat them once. We beat both of them. If we are capable of this, we are also capable of winning a final if everything we propose works. Giving Madrid the favorite sign is not a strategy, it is a historical truth. It should be remembered that the club has never lost a Champions League final (8/8 since the creation of the Champions League). But there is always a first time”he declared in the columns of A.S. This morning.
