It was indeed a stunning turnaround for PSG in the Champions League quarter-final against Chelsea. After winning the first leg 3-1, PSG seemed to have the upper hand, but Chelsea had other plans.
Chelsea managed to overturn the deficit with a 2-0 victory in the second leg, securing their place in the semi-finals. Demba Ba’s late goal in the 87th minute sealed the deal for Chelsea, following Andre Schürrle’s earlier goal in the first half.
This defeat comes as a major blow to PSG and their aspirations of becoming European champions under Laurent Blanc’s leadership. The Qataris, who have invested heavily in the club, had high hopes for PSG in the Champions League, but their dreams were shattered with this unexpected loss.
As a result, there are speculations that Laurent Blanc may face consequences for this failure, with the possibility of being replaced as the PSG coach. José Mourinho’s name has been mentioned in discussions about potential replacements, but the final decision remains uncertain.
Overall, it was a disappointing outcome for PSG, especially considering their recent success in the French league, and it remains to be seen what changes will occur in the club’s management moving forward.
