After beating Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League, Borussia Dortmund got the better of the French club on social media as well. Dortmund celebrated Tuesday's semifinal win by rubbing a bit of salt in PSG's wounds with a tongue-in-cheek message posted on social networks on Wednesday.

The German team posted an image of a hot air balloon in Dortmund's yellow-and-black colours flying over a beach where a PSG towel is spread out on the sand.

Written across the image was the French phrase for "Enjoy your vacation." The message was a response to PSG's tweet after beating Barcelona in the quarter-finals, which featured an image of a hot air balloon in the Spanish team's colours sinking in the Seine river in front of the Eiffel Tower.

Dortmund won 1-0 in the second leg for a 2-0 aggregate victory that left big-spending PSG still searching for a first Champions League victory.

Mats Hummels scored the only goal of the second leg at the Parc des Princes to give Dortmund a chance to secure a second Champions League trophy after winning in 1997.
