- PSG eliminated Chelsea from the Champions League with a 3-0 second-leg win at Stamford Bridge, advancing 8-2 on aggregate in the last 16.
- Liam Rosenior said his Chelsea players have 'had no break' but insisted that was not an excuse for the heavy defeat.
- PSG entered the tie as defending champions of the competition.
- The defeat concluded Chelsea's Champions League campaign at the last 16 stage.
- Rosenior's comments came after a tie in which Chelsea conceded eight goals across the two legs.
Why it matters: Chelsea's 8-2 aggregate exit to defending champions PSG ends their European campaign and puts Rosenior's squad under scrutiny, with his 'no break' defense implicitly blaming fixture congestion for a lopsided result against the competition's holders.
