Cavani is a brilliant counter attacking player. Great work-ethic and determination. Physicality and athleticism. I wish PSG had a 2nd player who had similar qualities who could join him in attack either as attacking midfielder or as second striker.

PSG could still be so dangerous with 10 men if they had a 2nd guy to help carry some of the load alongside Cavani.

Gary Cahill again. This should be all but done unless Chelsea completely collapse.

Gary Cahill is a great finisher for a defender. 1-0 Chelsea.

Lavezzi got a close one. Possibly the best chance PSG had all day. The attack seems to be still working. Just need a goal, really.

OH!

Of all the people who could score, it has to be David Luiz!

All the pressure is on Chelsea now. PSG can wait it out for extra time. Maybe penalties. Penalties would give them a fair shot at getting through.

Holy carp!

That was a brilliant header, I hope they replay it. That was a beauty. He got high, perfect technique, the shot was with power. No way to stop it.

It got even more exciting.

Costly mistake from Cavani, may haunt them on this free kick. Should have kept going even if he had no support on the counter, instead, gave it up on the midfield.

Diego Costa lucky not to get sent off for pushing Marquinhos to the ground.

Sums up the refereeing today. A questionable red card and an even questionable decision to not book an obvious, malicious foul.

I kinda wish Cuadrado was selected instead of Willian. I think Cuadrado is the more creative attacking player. Better dribbler and one-on-one player. Scares defenders. Willian is a nice all-round attacking midfield with v.good defensive effort. Not often a match winner though.

I bet Mourinho is regretting subbing out Matic for Zouma. Zouma is great defensively but he gives you nothing in attack. Useless in possession. It's like playing 10 vs 10 in attack.

Hey, Who, can you help me out, please?

Goals in extra time by an away team still counts as an away goal right?

Yes -- a lot of people want them to change that rule though.

OH. What just happened?

Thiago Silva with a bonehead decision. Why raise your hand? Why?
