BORUSSIA DORTMUND CLAP BACK AT PARIS SAINT GERMAIN AFTER UCL WIN

Borussia Dortmund are back in the UEFA Champions League final after defeating Paris Saint-Germain 1-0 on Tuesday, advancing on 2-0 aggregate across two legs.

Mats Hummels' header in the 50th minute propelled Dortmund to their third appearance in the UCL final and first since 2012-13.

The German club will play the winner of Real Madrid and Bayern Munich on June 1. Bayern Munich defeated Dortmund 2-1 in the 2013 UCL final at Wembley Stadium in London, the same location of this year's final.

Dortmund and PSG faced off in the tournament's round of 16 during the 2019-20 campaign.

PSG came out on top after winning 3-2 on aggregate, promptly trolling then-Dortmund star Erling Haaland's signature celebration after advancing. Dortmund kept the receipts, responding with their own version Tuesday after knocking out the Parisian side.

Haaland, who now plays for Manchester City in England, started the bad blood after he scored twice against PSG. In the days after the game, an unconfirmed photo surfaced on his social media where Haaland called Paris "my city, not yours."

It got around to PSG players, who mocked Haaland's celebration with that team photo posted in March 2020. Neymar, then playing at PSG, also posted a separate troll on his Instagram.

But Dortmund got the last laugh. They knocked out PSG, who hit the post six times Tuesday -- the most times hitting the post by any team in a UCL knockout tie since 2003-04, according to Stats-Perform.

SOCCER: HAALAND, SPURS' SON SCORE HAT-TRICKS, CHELSEA LOSE TO FOREST

Reuters

Manchester City goal-machine Erling Haaland bagged his fifth Premier League hat-trick as the champions maintained their 100% start with a 5-1 defeat of Fulham and Son Heung-min grabbed three for Tottenham Hotspur in a 5-2 win at Burnley on Saturday.

Brighton & Hove Albion also had a treble from teenage striker Evan Ferguson as they outclassed visiting Newcastle United 3-1 in the late kick-off.

Haaland, who scored four league hat-tricks in a record-shattering first season with City, is already in the groove and his triple against Fulham took his season's goal tally to six.

Julian Alvarez and Nathan Ake were also on target for City in the first half with Tim Ream equalising for Fulham but Haaland then grabbed centre stage as the hosts cut loose.

City, bidding to win an unprecedented fourth successive English league title, have a maximum 12 points with Spurs on 10 after they demolished Burnley 5-2 at Turf Moor.
