Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho was furious with the targeting of Eden Hazard by PSG last night.

Hazard was fouled a record nine times during the Champions League draw.

"In England you like to bring up some other discussions, but this point is important because of what happened," Mourinho told reporters.

"For example, what happened with Verratti. If (Hazard's) another player, he dives, stays on the floor, rolls in the grass, screams. He's asking for cards and cards and cards.

"This kid Hazard is pure. When he goes to the floor it is for a reason and there were nine fouls on him."

Mourinho also recalled a crunching recent tackle on the forward from Stoke's Phil Bardsley as he sought to make his point.

"In the Premier League it's no different," the Chelsea boss added. "For example at Stoke, which was an unbelievable situation, and this is what happens game after game."

Asked how Hazard should be protected, Mourinho said: "Give cards to the opponents, follow the rules of the game. It's as simple as that."
