The local coach was looking for something on his bench to cling to and ended up pulling on the physique of Lukaku and Loftus-Cheek. The last resort, the tremendous. More than the match, the tie was at stake. A local goal tightened the match, a visitor buried the tie for the European champions. Two resounding opportunities the Belgian forgave when Madrid ran out of steam. But those of Ancelotti they knew how to cool down the end of the game and the Chelsea ended up being the victim of the best game of the season Real Madrid. In the best place and on the most suitable night. And crowned by the majestic performance of Karim Benzema, a velvet hammer.
