Mourinho shuns Torres for Champions League tie

Jose Mourinho has left out Fernando Torres, preferring to gamble on the fitness of striker Samuel Eto’o as Chelsea look to overcome a two-goal deficit to advance to the Champions League semi-finals ahead of Paris St Germain.

Eto’o, who has scored all 11 of his Chelsea goals at Stamford Bridge, missed the past three games with a hamstring injury, including the 3-1 quarter-final first-leg loss at Parc des Princes last Wednesday.
