Kylian Mbapp\u00e9<\/a> scored twice as Paris Saint-Germain<\/a> reversed its first-leg loss at home to return to the Champions League<\/a> semi-finals with a 4-1 win over Barcelona<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Kylian<\/p>\n

Barcelona had gotten off to a good start and opened the scoring with a goal by Raphinha in the 12th, but the visitors took control with the man advantage and didn't let Barcelona get back into the game.<\/p>\n

Mbapp\u00e9 scored his goals in the 61st and 89th minutes.<\/p>\n

The Catalan side made it to the knockout stage of Europe's top club competition after two consecutive eliminations in the group stage.<\/p>\n

In the morning's other match, Marcel Sabitzer scored late and set up two more goals to send Borussia Dortmund into the other Champions League semi-final with a helter-skelter 4-2 win over Atl\u00e9tico Madrid.<\/p>\n

After losing the first leg of their quarterfinal 2-1 in Madrid, Dortmund had to come from behind twice over two legs to advance 5-4 on aggregate.<\/p>\n

Julian Brandt opened the scoring to level the tie before Sabitzer set up Ian Maatsen to give Dortmund a 2-0 lead on the night.<\/p>\n

\"Vitinha<\/p>\n

Atl\u00e9tico coach Diego Simeone responded with three changes at the break and they all paid off. A Mats Hummels own goal and goal from substitute Joaqu\u00edn Correa put the Spanish side back in front on aggregate.<\/p>\n

Then Sabitzer set up Niclas F\u00fcllkrug in the 71st minute for the Germany forward's first goal after nine scoreless games, and Sabitzer scored himself three minutes later to send Dortmund into the last four.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
