Former England defender, Rio Ferdinand has said Borussia Dortmund did a job subduing Kylian Mbappe as they defeated Paris Saint-Germain 1-0 in the second leg of their Champions League semi-final.

Mbappe failed to score over both legs as Dortmund won the tie 2-0 on aggregate.

With the France forward set to leave the Ligue 1 champions, he has now played his last European game for PSG.

Ferdinand, speaking on TNT Sports, said: “This is unusual for Kylian Mbappe. We are accustomed to seeing him at the biggest stage.

“All through his career he has seemed to step up, but over the two legs he has been very subdued.

“You have to give Dortmund massive credit. They didnt allow Mbappe to get one v one.

“Those big players find something when they get into space. The chance at the end, the volley, that was a chance for him to be clinical.

“But, more credit goes to the team in yellow, Dortmund. The manager Edin Terzic deserves massive credit.”
