Chelsea lost two goals to zero against the defending champions Real Madrid at Santiago Bernabeu. Kareem Benzema netted the first goal after a spectacular cross that Chelsea’s goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga punched the ball to give an open chance to Benzema to put the ball at the back of the net.

The Blue wingback Ben Chilwell received a red card after he pulled Vinicious Junior’s jersey on a counter-attack, a last man centre referee Francois Letexier from France had no option other than showing a red card for the Englishman.

A few minutes after Chelsea remained ten players on the pitch, Marco Asensio kicked a powerful shot that gave Los Blancos a comfortable two goals without conceding at the full-time whistle.

Tonight Chelsea will have to prove their worth and expose their capability at their home ground and bearing in mind they are two goals down against the undisputed UEFA giants.

In addition, the injured Chelsea will be limping to the match after losing two goals to one against Brighton in the Premier League match on Saturday. Los Blancos on their sides is eyeing up after registering a win of two goals to zero against in La Liga Santander.

However, Chelsea overturned the results last season against Real Madrid after losing 3-1 at Santiago Bernabeu and clinching a win of 3-2 at Stamford Bridge, but they were dumped out on aggregate.
