Borussia Dortmund 3-2 Malaga (Agg 3-2) - Goal.com

BVB didn't make their dominance count at Manhunter Roselada a week ago and it looked to be always a recurring theme when Joaquin put Manuel Pellegrini's ahead, but Robert Lewandowski equalised prior to the break. Eliseu appeared to possess broken BVB minds with a purpose but two an unbelievable comeback was ensured by stoppage-time strikes courtesy Marco Reus Felipe Santana. While the minutes ticked by the hosts became more adventurous and in the moment his first chance was got by Lewandowski to shoot at goal. He chose for an audacious 25-yard processor from Mario Gotze's move but his overcooked attempt sailed on the stuck Willy Caballero's purpose. Los Boquerones had fought to string an important assault together in the minute when they silenced the Signal Iduna Park. Julio Baptista pounced on an undesirable settlement from Felipe Santana and his move found Joaquin. Following a tight give-and-go with Isco, the 31-year-old cut inside onto his left foot and sent Roman Weidenfeller to a low shot past to net an enormous away goal. Apprehension and stress started initially to spread across the arena but their problems were reduced 5 minutes before half time. Reus flicked Gotze's go beautifully into the trail of Lewandowski who completed Willy and slotted the ball into the empty net to complete off a superb group shift. Joaquin was skilled a free of charge header in the last action of the first half which Weidenfeller comfortably held and the start of the second half provided similarly attractive possibilities for both parties. Lewandowski was unable to guide his chance past Willy after even more fast, sharp interaction with Gotze and minutes later the Weidenfeller managed to obtain a powerful hand to the ball to keep Joaquin's header. Malaga continued to press the play and drive the Bundesliga part into delivering the long ball up from the rear. However, when Sergio Sanchez failed to handle one particular cross Gotze couldn't find the from a position in the 53rd second. The business of Pellegrini's defence was outstanding and after Dortmund had a goal eliminated correctly for offside, Duda's thunderous effort nearly put into the dissatisfaction of the home fans. The heroics of Malaga goalkeeper Willy were a reason that the initial leg ended goalless and the Argentine was at it again in the closing phases, questioning both Reus and Gotze from close range The home fans' misery appeared to own been compounded in the 82nd minute as a fast break from the visitors broken with second-half exchange Eliseu sweeping home from close range. Yet there clearly was still time for one of the most remarkable comebacks in Champions League history, which Reus started as he placed home following a long ball in the 91st moment. Two minutes later the transformation was complete and the stadium went from despair to unbridled jubilation.Following a cross from the left a scramble in the place was put to a finish when Santana grabbed the ball in to the net from one property out. Somehow Dortmund, who'll be joined in the semi-finals by Real Madrid, managed to keep their unbeaten home report in the competition whole as their success ended Malaga's fairytale run.
