Chelsea midfielder Pedro Neto has apologised for pushing over a ball boy during the 5-2 defeat to Paris St-Germain in the Champions League last-16 first leg. The 26-year-old was seen using both hands on the young ball boy in stoppage time at Parc des Princes, causing him to fall onto a chair and triggering a mass altercation between both teams. Neto, speaking on TNT Sports, stated: 'I want to apologise to the ball boy. I have already spoken to him.

We were losing and in the emotion of the game I wanted to get the ball fast and I gave him a little push.' He added: 'I'm not like this. It was in the heat of the moment and I want to apologise. I gave him my shirt.

I'm really sorry about it - I feel I have to apologise to him.' The goalkeeper, Filip Jorgensen, also sparked frustration after the game, wanting to walk straight down the tunnel before being convinced by Robert Sanchez to applaud the fans. Two late goals from Khvicha Kvaratskhelia exposed further flaws in Chelsea's concentration and discipline, issues head coach Liam Rosenior acknowledged. 'The last 15, 20 minutes were crazy in many aspects,' Rosenior said. 'That's on me. I need to be better in moments - setbacks, mistakes happen. But you have to stay calm in the moment, me included.

And we didn't, and we were punished by a very good team, which makes the scoreline a painful one because for 75 minutes we were in the tie and in the game.' Chelsea host PSG at Stamford Bridge on Tuesday in the second leg of the last-16 tie.
