Edinson Cavani scored on a 54th-minute header, boosting Paris Saint-Germain into a 1-1 tie with Chelsea on Tuesday night as the Champions League resumed after a two-month break. Branislav Ivanovic put Chelsea ahead in the 36th minute of the second-round, first-leg match. Blues goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois made five fine stops, including a first-half save on Cavani's glancing header and shots by Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Blaise Matuidi. The second leg of the total-goals series in the round of 16 is in London on March 11, and Chelsea headed home with an away goal, the first tiebreaker.
