Borussia Dortmund secured their place in the Champions League quarter-finals for the second consecutive year, defeating Lille 2-1 in France. The German side, who finished runners-up in the previous season, emerged victorious with a 3-2 aggregate score.
Emre Can converted a penalty to equalize Jonathan David's early opener for Lille. Maximilian Beier then scored the winning goal for Dortmund, sealing a deserved victory.
Dortmund's next challenge will be against Barcelona in the quarter-finals, where they will battle for a spot in the semi-finals.
Lille's European journey came to a disappointing end despite their impressive performance in the league phase, where they finished among the top eight. Their victories over Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid were notable highlights of their campaign.
