Jose Mourinho accuses Paris Saint-Germain of "simulation of injuries"

Mourinho accuses PSG of "simulation"

Jose Mourinho has accused Paris Saint-Germain of "simulation of injuries" to run down the clock in the remaining minutes of their Champions League tie against Chelsea this evening.

Thiago Silva's headed goal with six minutes remaining in extra time handed the French champions the advantage on away goals, with the tie finishing 3-3 on aggregate after a 2-2 draw at Stamford Bridge tonight.

After the match, the manager told Sky Sports News: "They have a reason to celebrate and I told my players it is not after a bad match I kick tables and doors, it is time to be calm and analyse as a team.

"They were aggressive, what we used to call clever on the continent. In England that is not accepted as clever. They did what they did, after the second goal there was no more game. Simulation of injuries, they stopped completely the game.

"It is the beauty of English football but in continental football the other teams are more prepared to cope with the mental side. I wouldn't say dirty but the other side."

Chelsea were ahead with five minutes to play in normal time, but David Luiz equalised against his old club to force extra time.
