Chelsea has sealed a 2-0 victory over Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League on Tuesday at Stamford Bridge, earning a place in the semi-finals on the away goals rule.

PSG, who won the first leg 3-1, was heading for a first appearance in the last four of the Champions League since 1995.

According to Sport24, although the visitors dominated early on in the game, however, Chelsea went ahead in the tense end-to-end battle at the ground Bridge with a superbly taken goal from substitute Andre Schuerrle after 32 minutes.

Chelsea substitute Demba Ba then bundled in a loose ball after 87 minutes to clinch the tie, which ended 3-3 on aggregate, the report added.
