Jonathan Liew was in Dortmund tonight. His report is here. Thanks for reading this MBM. Nighty night!

Dortmund’s Mats Hummels speaks to TNT Sports. “It was intense … it was a lot of fun … everybody gave it all 100 percent … we didn’t play perfect so it’s good to see we can still get a result against such a good team … all around we can be very happy with the result … we know how hard it is for opponents to beat us here … problem is we have to go to Paris … I have never won in Paris so it’d be a good time to try for the first time … it will be a good atmosphere … we can look forward to a great game … it is 90 minutes to the final … we know what we want … we are one little step closer … but we are not over the finish line.”

As part of the team that lost to Bayern Munich in the 2013 Wembley final, the 35-year-old defender is asked if he’s hoping for a chance to go back there and right some wrongs. “Of course … it was my only Champions League final in my career, it would be so great to have a second one … especially at this age, I did not expect a chance that big to come again … it would be a dream.
