Champions League SPORTS

Chelsea came into the second leg at the Santiago Bernabeu on Tuesday after it’s 3-1 loss to Real Madrid at the Stamford Bridge.

The Blues raced into a 3-0 lead courtesy of goals Mason Mount, Antonio Rudiger, and Timo Werner but were pegged back by Rodrygo’s 80th-minute goal and Karim Benzema’s 96th-minute effort to send the Carlo Ancelotti-led team through to the semifinals.

However, Real Madrid are now bound to face either Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City or Atletico Madrid in the semi-final of the UEFA Champions League following their elimination of Chelsea.
