GOAL!!!!!! PSG lead 2-1 on the night. That is surely curtains for Chelsea. Di Maria plays a ball inside from the left and races down the flank to reach the return pass. The winger delivers an inc-perfect cross into the middle for Zlatan who arrives on cue to tuck home from close range. (PSG lead 4-2 on aggregate).

DOUBLE SAVE! Willian engineers space 25 yards out and drills in a thunderous shot that Trapp is forced to palm away at full stretch. Hazard races on to the rebound but sees his effort kept out by the superb reactions of the PSG stopper.

Chelsea need to raise themselves here. They've not troubled PSG as much in this half.

Zlatan races onto a clever through pass but takes a heavy touch on the left side of the area and sees his stabbed effort from a narrow angle deflect wide off the foot of Courtois.
61'
Costa was scaring the life out of the PSG defence. That's a huge lift for Blanc and co.

Concern for Chelsea. Costa goes down and looks in a bit of trouble. The physios are on... oh dear... he's going to have to be replaced. Major blow for the Blues.
58'
Fabregas takes a quick free kick that sends Silva chasing after Costa. The Chelsea forward looks to surge into the left of the area but the defender gets across to flick it behind. The resulting corner comes to nothing.
57'
Maxwell with a rare foray down the left. The cross is lifted towards the far post but it's far too close to Courtois.
56'
The second half is still waiting to catch fire. This will suit PSG who remain 3-2 ahead on aggregate.

Back up the other end and Hazard and Costa are continuing to cause problems. It leads to a corner but Maxwell gets is it away for the visitors.
53'
Di Maria curves a free kick in from the left. It's got a dangerous trajectory on it but there are no PSg players making runs at the far post. Chelsea survive and clear their lines.

Mikel booked for hacking down Lucas as the PSG forward threatened on the counter.
51'
Chelsea desperate to bring an end to that previous stat. If they don't, they will go out.
50'
DID YOU KNOW? PSG are the only team yet to concede a goal in the second-half of a Champions League game in 2015/16.
49'
Willian rampages down the left and outpaces his man. The winger cuts it back for Costa who sees his shot deflected away before the follow-up is also blocked at the far post. PSg scramble it clear.
48'
PSG aren't learning their lesson. Costa is once again afforded too much space 35 yards out. The forward drives at goal but just as he is about to pull the trigger inside the area, Silva gets across to nip it off his toe.
47'
Is Costa the key to a successful Chelsea comeback here?
