The Blues beat PSG 2-0 to qualify for the semi-finals on away goals…
GK) Petr Cech – 8
More than made up for last week’s howler. Didn’t have too much to do, but held the ball excellently from a late Lucas drive, and tipped away a swinging Lavezzi freekick, too. Saved a last minute shot from Marquinhos, with Chelsea fans barely able to watch.
DR) Branislav Ivanovic – 7
Got forward regularly up the right flank, but his final ball was just lacking. Defensively, he was outstanding though.
DC) John Terry – 7
A brave captain’s performance from Terry. Marshaled his back line well, and rarely gave Edinson Cavani chances up top.
DC) Gary Cahill – 7
Missed a guilt edged chance in the first-half, when he blasted over from six yards out. Won the ball back many times late on, however, and was an example of the commitment shown by all the Chelsea players.
DL) Cesar Azpilicueta – 7
Did everything expected of him on the left of the back four. Passed the ball into Chelsea’s defensive midfielders well.
