Dortmund's Felipe Santana flabbergast Malaga with his winner at the injury time to claim a 3- 2 victory in Champions League quarterfinals second leg match on Tuesday.

After the goalless first leg, Dortmund were in need of a victory to progress into the semi-finals whereas Malaga needed a draw or a victory to advance.

It looked like a decisive goal when Malaga's Eliseu Pereira dos Santos made it 2-1 at the 82nd minute to force Dortmund to win the match. However, they turned things around within two minutes to shock the visitors from Spain.

Both sides staged a slow start but with 15 minutes into the match Dortmund's Robert Lewandowski approached Malaga's goal with a lob over the bar.

The hosts controlled the proceeding on the pitch but it were the visitors that opened the scoring against the run of the game when Joaquin Sanchez Rodriguez danced through Dortmund defence to curl the ball from 18 meters into the bottom right with 25 minutes into the match.

Dortmund pilled on the pressure and responded five minutes before the break as Robert Lewandowski utilized Marco Reus's back heel pass to slot home into the open goal.

After the break Dortmund again dictated the proceedings on the pitch but yet they were unable to grab the lead. Malaga's keeper Wilfredo Daniel Caballero Lazcano secured the draw with two great saves to deny Marco Reus and Mario Goetze the score.

Goals were scored at the other end of the pitch as Eliseu Pereira dos Santos finished a counter out of the blue to make it 2- 1 on the scoreboards at the 82nd minute.

It looked like an early knockout but Dortmund kept it bowling to overpower the visitors in the closing period. The hosts pressed Malaga into their own territory to make it 2-2 on the scoreboards with one minute into the additional time.

However, Dortmund were able to turn around a nearly impossible deficit as Felipe Santana tapped in the ball from very close range to secure his side Champions League semi finals with a 3-2 win on aggregate.
