Mbappe denied PSG goal as Dortmund produce all-time great goal-line clearance
Kylian Mbappe was denied a goal against Borussia Dortmund by one of the most incredible goal-line clearances of all time.
The superstar striker’s Paris Saint-Germain travelled to Germany knowing victory would send them through to the Champions League knockout stages, with anything less opening the door to Newcastle and AC Milan if either could win at St James' Park. With that in mind, PSG went for it at Signal Iduna Park in a first half which somehow ended goalless, despite a string of chances.
Early on, Mbappe looked set to score after rounding keeper Gregor Kobel. With the goal gaping, the World Cup winner hit the target, only for the back-tracking Niklas Sule to come from nowhere to produce an amazing sliding block.

The clearance drew gasps from fans in the ground and watching at home. talkSPORT’s European football expert Kevin Hatchard posted on X (formerly Twitter): “That's the wildest goalless first half I’ve ever seen. Literally could be 3-3. Süle’s goalline clearance from Mbappe has to be seen to be believed, Lee and Kolo Muani have both missed sitters, and Donnarumma’s twice denied Reus.”
Meanwhile, one fan said: “What a clearance by Sule to stop Mbappe’s shot. Wow!” Another added: “What a clearance by Sule, denying Mbappe an open goal.”
