Substitute Kvaratskhelia inspires PSG to 5-2 win against Chelsea

  • In the first leg at Parc des Princes, PSG beat Chelsea 5-2 after Malo Gusto and Enzo Fernandez scored early on, with Chelsea twice recovering to level.
  • A costly misjudgement by Chelsea goalkeeper Filip Jorgensen swung the match in PSG's favour, with Chelsea defence's earlier failure to clear a bouncing ball at Parc des Princes exposing recurring lapses.
  • In a key 74th-minute passage, Jorgensen's pass was cut out easily by Bradley Barcola, who then passed to Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, who squared it and Vitinha chipped the goalkeeper, while Kvaratskhelia curled a fourth and tapped in a fifth soon after.
  • Chelsea fought back bravely but their naivety left them vulnerable, while match observers noted a "sniff of encouragement" that PSG holders can still be beaten.
  • Tactically, Paris Saint-Germain's rapid transitions highlighted risks in Chelsea's high line, leaving space for quick attacks and strengthening PSG's position as defending champions in the last-16.
