Jadon Sancho led the dressing room celebrations after Borussia Dortmund reached the Champions League final.
Sancho played a pivotal role as his side ousted Kylian Mbappe and Co in the second leg of their semi final against PSG on Tuesday evening, the visitors winning 1-0 thanks to a header from veteran defender Mats Hummels.
The result meant Dortmund won 2-0 on aggregate, with manager Edin Terzic boasting of two clean sheets in the aftermath of the tie, which saw two solid defensive displays from the German outfit.
Branded Player of the Match by a number of pundits for his performance in the first leg in Dortmund last week, Sancho was involved in a more reserved display this time, regularly tracking back to help his side defensively as they reached their first final since 2011.
And the Manchester United man didn’t hold back when letting off steam after, with footage from inside the away dressing room showing the winger front and centre of the celebrations by the squad.

Sancho played a key role in both legs to help his side reach the final of the competitionIn a video shared to Instagram by the official Borsussia Dortmund account, Sancho can be seen carrying a large speaker as the rest of the squad watch on, singing along to Adele’s Someone Like You.The squad are in full voice, with some too tired to stand and others taking a breather and taking on various refreshments.
The video then cuts, and Sancho can be seen stepping up onto the table in the middle of the room, speaker still in hand, his phone in the other.
He can be seen regularly walking around the table, embracing his team-mates and reaching to the skies as he continues to belt out Adele’s hit.
The 24-year-old’s current team-mates can be seen laughing and filming Sancho’s antics as they see the funny side of the midfielder’s performance.
The Champions League final could be Sancho’s last game for Dortmund in what has been somewhat of a stellar loan spell from United, which began in January, with Dortmund boss Edin Terzic reluctant to discuss a possible permanent deal for Sancho before Tuesday’s game.
After a public falling out with manager Erik ten Hag, Sancho was banished from the first team, forced to train with youth team players as he remained defiant in his unwillingness to apologise.
Sancho had effectively called Ten Hag a liar on social media after the Dutchman questioned his training standards publicly, and his United career now appears all-but-over despite two years remaining on his deal at Old Trafford.

Co-pundit Owen Hargreaves added: ‘If you pair him with the players, there is the potential to grow them into something really big. Jadon could be a part of that, he should be excited to be with that.’
Sancho had also been involved in the on-field celebrations at the Parc de Princes, with Dortmund’s players rushing over to the away end inside the ground at the full time whistle.
The players wore shirts with the words ‘yellow wall’ on as a symbol of their fan base, while their defensive performance earned the team the same nickname on Tuesday.
Ferdinand had argued that INEOS, the new minority ownership ground at United headed by billionaire Sir Jim Ratcliffe, would be questioning Sancho’s success this season.

He had struggled in a United shirt since his £73million move from the German side in 2021, but now finds himself in a Champions League final back on loan at the club.
‘He is in good form and needs to follow it up, then he really puts pressure on Manchester United,’ Ferdinand said. ‘People behind the scenes, INEOS, will be asking why that isn’t happening in a United shirt.’
Mail Sport revealed earlier this week that United will look to sell Sancho this summer after holding face-to-face talks with him.
Sancho signed for United three years ago and has made 82 appearances for the club, scoring 12 goals, while he has provided six assists.
