PSG 2-1 Chelsea: Player ratings

Chelsea lost their first match under interim manager Guus Hiddink after a late Edinson Cavani goal for Paris Saint-Germain secured the win for Laurent Blanc’s side.

The Blues faced pressure early on from the Parisians, however, stood strong and had the game’s first chance when Diego Costa saw his header tipped onto the bar.

But it was PSG who broke the deadlock with Zlatan Ibrahimovic firing a free-kick that took a deflection on its way into the Chelsea net.

The Londoners clawed their way back into the game and grabbed a crucial away goal through the unlikely source of John Obi Mikel who smashed the ball in after a Costa flick on.

PSG were saved when Cavani stepped off the bench to latch onto the end of an exquisite Angel Di Maria pass to slot past Thibaut Courtois.

Here’re our player ratings for the match.
