PSG PUNISH LATE CHELSEA ERRORS TO COMPLETE DOMINANT WIN
Paris Saint-Germain took a massive step towards the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals as super sub Khvicha Kvaratskhelia bagged a late double to give the defending European champions a clinical 5-2 win against Chelsea at the Parc des Princes.
With the last-16 first leg finely poised as 2-2 on 74 minutes, Chelsea goalkeeper Filip Jorgensen was guilty of giving the ball away as Kvaratskhelia set up Vitinha to chip into the gaping net for a 3-2 advantage.
It quickly became 4-2 when Kvaratskhelia, who replaced Desire Doue on 62 minutes, thumped a brilliant finish into the corner of the goal on 86 minutes before the Georgian forward swept home Achraf Hakimi's pass deep in added time with the visitors pushing for a third goal of their own.
In truth, Chelsea will reflect on this defeat as a match of self-inflicted wounds with their passing late on presenting the Ligue 1 leaders with the opportunity to severely dent their ambitions in the club game's premier tournament.
Chelsea, who defeated PSG 3-0 in the Club World Cup final in July, had twice fought back from 1-0 and 2-1 down with Malo Gusto (28') and Enzo Fernández (57') scoring fine goals to cancel out superb finishes from Bradley Barcola (10') and Ousmane Dembele (40').
But the late three-goal burst from PSG sets up Luis Enrique's side, who scored five goals from nine shots on target, for a possible quarter-final with Liverpool or Galatasaray.
It was the first time the London side had lost five in the Champions League since going down 5-1 at Barcelona in 2000, and they will require a huge effort to turn this match around at Stamford Bridge on Tuesday.

KHVICHA KVARATSKHELIA SPEAKS TO TNT SPORTS AFTER INSPIRING PSG WIN
"I'm very happy I can help the team, but I'm more happy that we won against Chelsea because they are a good team.
"I think we showed today we are capable of everything. We just have to continue like this.
"We conceded two goals, and we can see the mistakes we made, but we are happy with a three-goal victory.
"Chelsea scored two goals at our home, so the good thing is we didn't stop, we tried to score more and more goals.
"The good thing is we are continuing in the right way.  We are the same team. We had a difficult time, but we can handle it.
"I think we just have to work hard and just continue like that.
"We know that anything can happen in football, so we have to be ready for the second leg."

TNT SPORTS PUNDIT JOE COLE LAMENTS CHELSEA ERRORS IN PARIS DEFEAT
"Chelsea looked comfortable at 2-2," he said.
"Even at 3-2 you'd take going back to Stamford Bridge, with a lot from the game.
"The decision to play out, I think there has to be an element of knowing when to do that.
"This is a way of playing, and it’s a methodology, and the idea is we'll get better at it.
"They think the rewards outweigh the risks. But I think there are ways to play. I think the midfield steps up at 70 minutes, and it cost them."

GLENN HODDLE ON CHELSEA'S LATE COLLAPSE IN PARIS
"Wow, how this game has been turned on its head," said the former Chelsea manager on TNT Sports. "Beautiful bit of play here, lovely skill. They're in behind, it's a lovely little position that Kvaratskhelia picks up on the penalty spoke. Hakimi has time to look up, passes it across the box here. He hits the target, he doesn't hit it that well. Jorgensen can't get down quick enough."

CHELSEA ALMOST GIFTING PSG A FIFTH GOAL
Alejandro Garnacho has replaced Malo Gusto for the visiting side. PSG have the ball in the net, but Nuno Mendes is offside. Meanwhile, Pedro Neto has shoved a ball boy after trying to retrieve the football. Which doesn't please the home fans. But it is all calmed down quickly.

GLENN HODDLE LAMENTS CHELSEA ERROR FOR PSG'S THIRD GOAL
"Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear," he said on TNT Sports. "Jorgensen there makes an absolute error. There's no angle to play that pass, with the left foot as well. He drags it across. It's too risky! I've got to say, Vitinha takes it beautifully. It pops up in the air, you think is he going to smash it? But it's not, it's a lovely little lob. Talk about self-inflicted. Chelsea, they were defending superbly well."
