PARIS SAINT-GERMAIN ultras turned up for their Champions League quarter-final first leg against Chelsea Women last night with Class A drugs and weapons, including knives and a knuckle-duster. They arrived on a coach and were accused of causing criminal damage to Chelsea’s Kingsmeadow ground yesterday morning, with reports of further disorder throughout the day. Metropolitan Police officers arrested a man for possession of drugs while other passengers, said to be ultras already banned from attending men’s matches, had tickets confiscated. They were escorted away and have been sent back to France.
