Uruguayan striker Edinson Cavani became Paris Saint Germain's hero, as the South American scored the game-winning goal for Laurent Blanc's side against Chelsea.
With the game was even after 74 minutes, PSG's coach subbed Lucas Moura off to give way for Cavani, desperately looking to change the outcome of the game
The former Napoli man has been the subject of many rumors about a possible departure from the team, but he managed to make his presence felt on the pitch just four minutes after coming in. Taking advantage of a clinical through ball by Angel Di Maria, Edinson Cavani put the ball past Thibaut Courtois to keep PSG's chances of making it to the Quarter finals alive.
The Uruguayan striker seems to have what it takes to make Chelsea suffer, since the South American has been involved in five goals against the Blues in seven matchups. "Edi" has scored three while handing out two assists against the London-based side.
Of course, fans, did not waste any time and praised his clinical finish. Have a look at what some of them had to say.
Cavani scores in a clutch moment, oh my.
