Chelsea crumbled in Paris to lose 5-2 to PSG and leave them staring at Champions League elimination.

The Blues had levelled the score at 2-2 midway through the second half through Enzo Fernandez.

But Liam Rosenior’s side conceded three goals in the final 20 minutes through Vitinha and a double from Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.

Bradley Barcola gave the home side the lead in the tenth minute before Malo Gusto scored a deserved equaliser for Chelsea.

Reigning Ballon d’Or winner Ousmane Dembele put PSG back ahead by finishing off a devastating counter attack but Fernandez’s fine finish looked to have secured a valuable draw for Chelsea ahead of the second leg at Stamford Bridge.

It was not to be however. Filip Jorgensen, starting in place of Robert Sanchez, made a costly mistake by giving the ball away to allow Vitinha to dink the ball over his head and into the net to make it 3-2.

And substitute Kvaratskhelia took the tie away from Chelsea with two stunning strikes in the space of eight minutes, leaving Rosenior’s men with a huge uphill battle in the second leg.

  1. I won’t blame the goalkeeper. The manager never plays a championship league and he does not know how to set his team to face PSG. Liam Rosenior always accepts his mistakes because he needs more training to become a coach. Rosenior coaching team members are too old to coach Chelsea and they need to go.
