The French champions were too good for their English counterparts,
though it was an entertaining end-to-end battle until Zlatan Ibrahimovic
settled it late.
And that’s that! The champions of France see off the champions of England. PSG put Chelsea out for the second year running, and they’re into the hat for the quarter finals. In truth, they were the better side in both legs, though Chelsea kept it competitive deep into this second match. Guus Hiddink warmly congratulates his opposite number Laurent Blanc, as PSG gambol across to their fans in celebration. We’d usually say “ah well, there’s always next year” at this point, but for once Chelsea are struggling to qualify for the big one. Having said that, they’re one of the form teams in the Premier League, so that route’s not closed yet. And hey, there’s always the FA Cup.
