It was just too easy for PSG against Chelsea

Chelsea 0 - 3 PSG (PSG won 8-2 on aggregate) This was Chelsea’s joint-heaviest defeat in a two‑legged European tie Author | Lewis W Stadium | Stamford Bridge Khvicha Kvaratskhelia opened the scoring after just six minutes, with Bradley Barcola doubling PSG's lead with their second shot of the game in the 14th minute. That goal meant Chelsea needed to score 4 without reply to take the tie into extra time, effectively ended it as a contest, and substitute Senny Mayulu piled further misery on Chelsea in this last‑16 meeting. Chelsea responded with a burst of attacking intent, with Cole Palmer, Enzo Fernandez, Pedro Neto and Trevoh Chalobah all involved as they pressed for a way back. Yet it was Paris Saint-Germain who struck again. After Moises Caicedo was dispossessed in midfield, PSG broke with purpose.

Arsenal 1 - 0 Chelsea (Arsenal won 4-2 on aggregate) Arsenal moved to within one game of their first major trophy since 2020 Author | DJ Stadium | Emirates Stadium Holding a 3-2 advantage from the first leg, Mikel Arteta’s side were made to wait until the seventh minute of added time to confirm their progress on a nervy night at the Emirates Stadium. Kai Havertz, introduced from the bench, delivered the decisive moment, rounding Robert Sánchez before calmly rolling the ball into an empty net. Arsenal, who sit top of the Premier League and remain alive in three cup competitions, will meet either Manchester City or Newcastle at Wembley next month. The sense of occasion was unmistakable, even if the contest itself was often tight and attritional. How Arsenal and Arteta booked a trip down Wembley Way The hosts began on the front foot but found space hard to come by against a Chelsea side set up in a back five, with clear chances at a premium before the interval. Liam Rosenior attempted t...
