LEIPZIA (GERMANY) – Leipzig still wins against Tottenham and flies to the Champions League quarter-finals. After the 1-0 first leg, Nagelsmann's team also made it 3-0 at home thanks to Sabitzer's brace and Forsberg's seal. Mourinho's formation eliminated.
It takes just 10 minutes for the Germans to unlock the race and make the Spurs' recovery plans even more complicated: Werner fishes at the edge of the Sabitzer area, whose inner neck right is just touched by Lloris who cannot avoid the 1 -0.
At 19 'the doubling was canceled at Werner for offside, but just two minutes later Sabitzer was once again to get in the chair, with a header that is worth the 2-0 on Angelino's cross.
Tottenham is in total confusion and only on the 42 'frightens Gulacsi with Lo Celso, who kicks left and calls the local goalkeeper to answer; a few moments before the break, however, Lloris avoids the German set by tinkering on the line a rebound that was favoring Schick.
In the second half, Mourinho's team tries to strike up some timid recovery attempts, but there are very few dangers from the parts of Gulacsi. Leipzig manage with confidence, in the final it also finds the 3-0 with the newly entered Forsberg and at the triple whistle can cheer for a historic qualification to the quarterfinals of the Champions League.
