Real Madrid and Chelsea meet at the Bernabeu for the first time on Tuesday with a place in the Champions League semi-finals on

It was the Karim Benzema show in the first leg at Stamford Bridge as the prolific Frenchman scored a 25-minute hat-trick, claiming his second successive Champions League match ball, having put PSG to the sword the round prior. Chelsea now face an uphill battle to overturn a 3-1 deficit from that opening tie.

The reigning European champions looked to have shifted momentum back in their favour after going 2-0 down in west London after Kai Havertz nodded home just  before half-time. But Carlo Ancelotti’s men came flying out of the traps after the restart and restored their two-goal cushion just a minute into the second half.
