A place in the Champions League final felt, for a moment, close enough to touch. This is how it used to be, or at least some approximation of it, back in the days when Dortmund made Europe shake.

There is a chance, of course, that it will all count for nothing. More than a chance, really: Dortmund may live to regret that a second goal never came. PSG had enough opportunities to hint at its threat, too, hitting the post twice in the space of 10 seconds at one point. It may not prove quite so forgiving in the return leg in Paris on Tuesday.
