Sports media “Sports Bible” reported on the 14th, “Borussia Dortmund defender Nicklas Jules blocked the first goal of Paris Saint-Germain’s Kylian Mbappe with a phenomenal goal line clearance.”
Paris Saint-Germain managed to advance to the round of 16 with a 1-1 draw against Dortmund in the sixth round of Group F of the UEFA Champions League (UCL) in the 2023/24 season at Sinal Iduna Park in Dortmund, Germany on the 14th (Korea time).
This game showed a great scene. In the 16th minute of the first half, Luca Hernandez accurately sent a long pass to Mbappe, who beat Jules and goalkeeper Cobel to face an empty net. He looked like he was going to score a goal by hitting a shot right away, but Jules slid and lifted his foot to show great defense.
Niklas Zule, who showed super tackles, commented on the tackle scene after the game. He said, “Of course it was really cool. You guys saw my crotch. I was able to stretch my feet reflexively.” 슬롯머신
Dortmund general manager Sebastian Kehl also praised his tackle scene for being incredible, and Jules’ tackle scene received a lot of praise on social media. However, Jules reflected on the scene as a scene that could have been prevented in advance.
“I think it was a scene that should have been blocked in advance. It is already well known how fast Mbappe is. I should have dealt with it faster. It was cool of course not to allow a run with such a great defensive scene. But I could have done better before,” Jules said.
Fans also couldn’t believe their eyes in this scene, and one person tweeted, “Switched to PSG game, Jules did one of the best goal line clearing I’ve ever seen.”
Another fan commented, “This is art. I didn’t know much about Jules’ performance,” and “I’ve never seen a block like this in my life. Crazy Jules.”
