Welcome back, Jadon Sancho! Winners and losers as Man Utd loanee lights up Champions League semi-final to overshadow constricted Kylian Mbappe and help Borussia Dortmund edge out PSG in thrilling first leg

Are you watching, Erik ten Hag?! Sancho didn't actually start the game all that well, but the English winger was clearly identified as the focal point of this Dortmund attack, and Edin Terzic called on his team to funnel their attacks down the right-hand side.

The result was a magnificent performance on the big stage, as Sancho toyed with Nuno Mendes all evening, created three chances, and would have ended the night with two assists had Dortmund's forwards been more clinical.

But it wasn't just the passing. Sancho completed seven dribbles in the first half alone - more than he managed in a single game for United - and dazzled every time he touched the ball. It's fair to wonder where this player has been for the best part of three years, but on Wednesday, he showed up in full.

As for the other high-profile forward on the pitch... Mbappe was deployed in a central role here, and although he was, in theory, allowed some freedom to roam, found himself strangled by Dortmund defenders every time he touched the ball within 20 yards of the goal.

He has long promised that he will try to bring Champions League glory to Paris, and time-after-time, he has done his part to drag this often overmatched team to wins. But here, the Parisians are the clear favourites, and Mbappe needed to step up.

In his defence, he never forced anything - always making the right pass, or identifying the best time to dribble. And on another night, a fine curled effort that kissed the inside of the post might have crept in. Still, Mbappe was bottled up for long stretches, and rendered more or less irrelevant. For PSG to make it through, that narrative must shift at Parc des Princes next week.

Two years ago, Fullkrug was an underappreciated talent, a big, powerful striker plying his trade for a team in Werder Bremen who were never truly likely to compete for the biggest honours. A move to Dortmund certainly raised his profile, but he hasn't quite become the prolific goal-scorer some thought he might be. Still, he has a tendency to crop up in big moments, and so he did here.

Dortmund knew that Fullkrug's power would be a problem through the middle, with neither Marquinhos nor Lucas Hernandez known for their physical nature of play. His goal was a classic sort for a physical striker, as he barrelled in behind, took one touch to bring the ball out of the air before smashing home with his second.

He had a couple of similar efforts in the second half and, one big miss notwithstanding, created chaos all evening. Terzic's side aren't blessed with immense firepower, but Fullkrug provided a much-needed spark.

Speaking of firepower... Where was it from the Parisians? Yes, Mbappe is supposed to be the main man up front for Luis Enrique's side, but this is a team laden with big-name, big-money talent. Throughout the 90 minutes, however, it often looked a competition as to who could fail to find the back of the net most egregiously.

Dembele was the first to audition, seeing one effort from close range saved, before skying another with the whole goal to hit in the second half. Hakimi also tried his hand at beating Gregor Kobel, pinging one off the post. And Ruiz, who admittedly made some clever runs from deep areas, skewed two headers wide when he really should have scored.

The Parisians finished the game with 1.58 xG - and will certainly be frustrated that they didn't at least realise it.

There is always something to be said for home field advantage in European competition. Famous stadiums such as Anfield, Santiago Bernabeu, Old Trafford have stirred up the kind of rousing atmospheres that have been etched into Champions League folklore.

Signal Iduna Park, complete with its famous Yellow Wall, did the same against PSG. The Dortmund fans were vocal throughout, willing their team on when they had the ball, and letting boos ring free whenever the visitors touched it.

Terzic had highlighted the importance of the fans before the game, calling on the Dortmund faithful to help will the side to an important result. And with Jamie Carragher burying pint after pint in the stands, the fans delivered.

Yes, you read that right: this was a bad night for Tottenham.. Dortmund's first leg win shuffled the UEFA coefficient numbers enough so that Germany will now snag a much-coveted fifth spot in the Champions League next season.

For long stretches, it seemed almost guaranteed that England would benefit from their strong performances across the continent. Now, though, that won't be the case, with the Premier League's mass exodus from Europe at the quarter-final stage condemning them to the standard four spots, with Germany joining Italy in earning the extra berth.

Currently, fourth place in the Premier League is held by Unai Emery's Aston Villa, who are seven points clear ahead of Spurs. Ange Postecoglu's side do have two games in hand, while Villa still have their eyes on winning the Conference League, but with Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester City still on Tottenham's fixture list, their chances of climbing into the top four seem slim at best.

That said, so much of the conversation around the Premier League this year has been centred on the title race, but the competition for fourth just heated up.
