Dortmund and Lille separate 1: 1 in the round of 16!

In the round of 16 of the UEFA Champions League, Borussia Dortmund and OSC Lille separated 1-1 on March 4, 2025. This result means that in the second leg in Lille, the decision to move into the quarter-finals will be made, which is scheduled for March 12, 2025 at 6:45 p.m. in the Pierre-Mauroy. The BVB determined the action in the first half, while the French appeared more after the change of sides.

The first goal of the game fell in the 22nd minute through the Karim Adeyemi in shape. He scored the gate with a drop kick from 22 meters that hit the left inner post and rolled into the net. Dortmund's goalkeeper Gregor Kobel had little to do at the time of the first half, since the BVB's offensive exerted pressure and held control of the game. In the second half, however, the picture changed: Lille came back into play through a goal from Hakon Haraldson in the 68th minute. This was ideally served by Jonathan David with a plug -in pass and converted the equalization while Kobel was in motion.

Both goalkeepers had their challenges in the course of the game. The statistics show the achievements of Gregor Kobel and Lucas Chevalier:

The second half showed that Lille was not only more offensive until the compensation, but also had several other options, although none of these chances were mandatory enough to overcome Kobel again. In comparison, Chevalier also had a hard time, since he could also only distinguish himself once. Both teams have an exciting second half of the season.
