The Norwegian international striker Erling Haaland led his team, Borussia Dortmund, to the quarter-finals of the European Champions League by scoring two goals for his team against Sevilla 2-2 in the final price yesterday, and this despite the brilliance and glow of the Moroccan star of Seville, Youssef Nassiri, the owner of the two goals of his team.

The "giant" Haaland (1.95 m and 85 kg) scored two goals from his team’s hat-trick in the first leg, which ended with Dortmund's 3-2 victory over the Andalusian club in their own home.

Moroccan striker Youssef Nassiri responded to Haaland with a double in the 69th minute from a penalty kick and in the sixth minute of stoppage time (90 + 6).

Scorer Haaland said in a press statement: "It was a difficult match, I am tired, but it is good to qualify for the next round," adding, "We were aware that they were very strong, but when we scored a goal they needed three and the lead 1-0 in the first half was good for us."

He talked about the penalty kick that he missed, saying: "I wasted my first kick, and if the goalkeeper had stayed at the goal line, I would have scored, but he decided to cheat. I was nervous to repeat the kick, but I knew it was good to score the second goal."

The German club qualified for the quarter-finals for the first time since the 2016-2017 season, led by its former and Chelsea coach, Thomas Tuchel.

The "yellow and black" team did not taste a loss at home in its last eight matches in the Champions League (5 wins against 3 draws), and only one of its last 12 matches at home in the European competition was lost in front of Tottenham Hotspur, England, zero. -1 in the 2018-2019 season, on the way to the latter to reach the final match, which lost to fellow Liverpool countryman with two clean goals.
