Chelsea imploded in a damaging 5-2 defeat at PSG in the first leg of their Champions League last-16 tie, collapsing after goalkeeper Filip Jorgensen’s howler sparked a spectacular late capitulation...READ FULL; FROM THE SOURCE.
The Blues had twice come from behind to level through Malo Gusto and Enzo Fernandez, but Jorgensen’s disastrous attempted pass was intercepted, leading to Vitinha’s 74th-minute chip that put PSG ahead 3-2. Khvicha Kvaratskhelia then scored two late goals, a stunning strike from distance and a close-range finish with the final kick, to complete the rout.
Pedro Neto later apologized for pushing a ball boy during a melee as tensions boiled over. Chelsea boss Liam Rosenior took responsibility for Jorgensen’s mistakes, saying: “I take responsibility. I’m accountable for that.” Only four teams in Champions League history have overturned a three-goal first-leg deficit. The second leg is at Stamford Bridge next week.
