Eden Hazard was in the starting line-up for Chelsea, but lasted less than twenty minutes. He was replaced by Andre Schürrle who found himself in the right place later in the first-half. A long throw-in for Chelsea came into the P.S.G. box and David Luiz was able to get a flick header on the ball. The flicked ball fell for Schürrle right in front of goal and he scored with a free volley (32').
Still needing more attacking presence, Chelsea inserted Demba Ba into the offense in place of holding midfielder Frank Lampard in the second-half. Torres was also brought in for the final ten minutes of the match in a last-ditch effort by manager José Mourinho. It was Ba though that managed to get the final goal to put Chelsea in front. Azpilicueta fired a low shot towards goal that P.S.G. were unable to clear. Instead Ba was able to get a sweeping left-foot on the ball from close range to score (87').
With just a few minutes left in the match, P.S.G. could not respond and thus eliminated from the Champions League. That precious away-goal last week in France proved to be the deciding factor for Chelsea as the Blues advance to the semi-finals.
