Paris Saint-Germain's Zlatan Ibrahimovic brands Chelsea 'babies' following red card

Paris Saint-Germain striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic has said that Chelsea's players acted like babies after he was sent off against the Blues in their Champions League last-16 clash on Wednesday evening.

The Swede was given his marching orders for a challenge on Chelsea midfielder Oscar in the first half of the second leg at Stamford Bridge.

Several Chelsea players surrounded the referee after the tackle and Ibrahimovic has hinted that his dismissal was influenced by their protests.

"The worst thing was the Chelsea players," he told the Daily Mail. "I felt there were 11 babies around me."

PSG went on to win the tie with 10 men as a 2-2 draw saw them progress into the next round on away goals.
