Jadon Sancho impressed and outshone Kylian Mbappe in a stunning performance for PSG, showcasing his skills and abilities.

In a thrilling UEFA Champions League semi-final clash between Borussia Dortmund and Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), it was Dortmund’s English midfielder Jadon Sancho who stole the show. Owen Hargreaves, a former Manchester United player turned pundit, hailed Sancho’s performance, stating that he “outperformed some of the best players in the world” and “answered a lot of questions” in Dortmund’s 1-0 victory.

While Niclas Fullkrug’s first-half strike gave Dortmund a slender advantage heading into the second leg, it was Sancho’s dazzling display that caught the eye. The young winger completed an astonishing 12 dribbles in the game, the highest number by any player in a Champions League match this season and the most since Lionel Messi in 2008.

Hargreaves was full of praise for Sancho, highlighting his confidence and belief on the pitch. He noted that at Manchester United, Sancho didn’t often commit defenders, but in this game, he answered all doubts and outperformed every player on the pitch, including PSG’s Kylian Mbappe, who is widely regarded as one of the best players in the world.

The former United player acknowledged the weight of the Champions League semi-final stage and commended Sancho for his outstanding performance. Hargreaves dismissed any criticism of Sancho’s consistency, emphasizing that on this occasion, he was the standout player and deserved all the praise.

As the second leg approaches, all eyes will be on Sancho to see if he can replicate his heroics and guide Dortmund to the final. The young Englishman has certainly made a statement with his performance, leaving fans and pundits eagerly awaiting his next move on the pitch.
