Atletico Madrid Celebrates - The Canadian PressMADRID —

In the other quarterfinal on Wednesday, Barcelona won 3-2 at Paris Saint-Germain in their first-leg match. “We have to live with this result today,” Dortmund captain Emre Can said. “It’s not easy to play football here because they defend very well. There were phases where they completely overpowered us in the duels. So we’ll take the 2-1 and everything is open for next week.”

“I’m not sure you can say we were superior because in the second half they had the ball and pushed us back," Griezmann said. “There were moments when we could have scored a third but the truth is that we have suffered a lot in the second half.” “We made too many mistakes, but more important to me is the reaction we showed,” Dortmund coach Edin Terzic said."In the end, a draw wouldn’t have been undeserved. Everything remains open."
