Chelsea into semis despite Porto defeat

-

Chelsea have reached a first Champions League semi-final in seven years despite the Blues’ 1-0 quarter-final secondleg loss to Porto last night.

Mehdi Taremi’s stunning overhead kick in second-half added time put the squeeze on Chelsea, but the Blues still progressed to the semi-finals 2-1 on aggregate. They will now meet either Real Madrid or Liverpool in their first semifinal since losing out to Atletico Madrid in 2014.

Holders Bayern Munich crashed out to Paris St-Germain. The German giants won the second leg 1-0 thanks to a Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting goal but crashed out on the away goals rule, having lost the first leg 3-2.
