Defensive masterclass from Dortmund. Last time i saw Dortmund put in a defensive performance like that was 1997 against Man Utd in Old Trafford. Also a semi final and they went on to beat Juventus in the final. I'd like them to get another crack at Bayern. Bayern beat them in Wembley a few years ago
