Ibrahimovic is the best in the world, but PSG can beat Chelsea without him - Lavezzi

The Sweden international will miss the decisive Champions League quarter-final clash at Stamford Bridge with a hamstring injury sustained during last Wednesday's first leg, which PSG won 3-1. Ezequiel Lavezzi is confident Paris Saint-Germain can beat Chelsea without "the best forward player in the world", Zlatan Ibrahimovic. Lavezzi opened the scoring that night and believes that his side have shown that they are capable of coping without a striker that he feels is without equal.
 "He is a big player who has played in many big games - but we showed in the first game that we have many players with the qualities to hurt Chelsea." "Chelsea have to attack us - and that wont be easy for them," the winger reasoned. "It is their style to sit back and defend and try to score on the counterattack - but they need to score two goals so they wont be able to do that."We don't just plan to go there and defend - we have to be intelligent but we will be looking to score - because that away goal we know could kill the tie."
