PSG send Chelsea crashing out of CL to reach last eight

Paris Saint Germain came from behind to send Chelsea crashing out of the Champions League at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday and reach the last eight on away goals following extra time.

PSG came from behind twice to take revenge for last season's quarterfinal exit at the hands of Chelsea - showing great character to play for the last hour of normal time and the added 30 minutes without talisman Zlatan Ibrahimovic after he had been sent off for a foul on Oscar.

Gary Cahill's late goal looked to be sending Chelsea through until their former defender David Luiz thumped home a header to send the last-16 tie into extra time, the BBC reported.

Chelsea again went ahead through Eden Hazard's penalty following Thiago Silva's handball but the Brazilian defender made amends perfectly with another superb header six minutes from time to give coach Laurent Blanc's side the progression they deserved.

While PSG complained about Ibrahimovic's red card and the reaction that saw nine Chelsea players crowd the referee, Chelsea suffered unfairness of their own as Diego Costa was denied a clear first-half penalty when Edinson Cavani fouled him, the report added.
