Chelsea made it through to the last four with a battling 2-1 aggregate victory over Porto, with both legs of their quarter-final taking place in Seville due to coronavirus restrictions.
The Blues won their ‘away’ leg 2-0 last week thanks to goals from Mason Mount and Ben Chilwell, with Porto’s 1-0 victory in Tuesday’s second leg not proving enough to progress.
PSG gained revenge on Bayern Munich for their defeat in last season’s final by beating the Germans on away goals to progress, with Kylian Mbappe’s brace in the first leg in Munich proving vital as Mauricio Pochettino’s side won 3-2.
Bayern’s former PSG forward Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting scored the only goal of the second leg in Paris, but that wasn’t enough as Hansi Flick’s side bowed out on away goals after a 3-3 aggregate draw.
