Great night for Sporting. The “Lions” needed a two-goal victory over Dortmund to close in the “16” of the Champions League for the second time in their history and they did even better by defeating the German team 3-1 in Lisbon. So Ruben Amorim’s team got the ticket as second from the third group, behind Ajax, leaving Dortmund third, to move to the Europa League.
Borussia was in control in the first half, but again in the absence of the injured Haaland it was meaningless in contrast to the hosts who made the most of their two moments.
In the 30th minute, Schultz, trying to control a deep ball, took out Pedro Gonzalves four-on-four, who did not make a mistake for 1-0.
The same player in 39 ‘with an amazing shot from the height of the area gave a lead of two goals and a qualifying score of “16” for his team.
Dortmund tried to become more threatening in the second half, but it all ended in 74 ‘, when Chan hit Poros and was sent off. The… victim of the attack seven minutes later, from a rebound after Kobel’s repulse on Gonzalves’s penalty made it 3-0. Malen in 93 ‘with a close projection gave a hope to the guests.

Besiktas-Ajax 1-2
(22 ‘Ghezal – 46’, 54 ‘Ale)
