Jurgen Klopp: 'Malaga victory gave us belief'

Borussia Dortmund coach Jurgen Klopp reveals that it was his side's dramatic win over Malaga at the quarter-final stage that helped them believe that they could win the Champions League.

Borussia Dortmund coach Jurgen Klopp has revealed that his side were full of confidence in Europe after their dramatic turnaround against Malaga in the last eight of the Champions League.

Dortmund scored twice in injury time to advance through to the semi-finals where they beat Real Madrid, and Klopp believes that the two-minute spell during their quarter-final tie changed their fortunes in the competition.

The 45-year-old told the club's official website: "It was after this quarter-final win and particularly the way it came about, that we thought it could work out, that we had a chance to go to Wembley.

"It may be a surprise that we are in the final, but it's not a sensation."

Dortmund face Bayern Munich in the Champions League final at Wembley on Saturday evening.
