Chelsea v Real Madrid: Rodrygo Scores Twice As Los Blancos Knockout Lampard’s Men

Chelsea conceded 2 goals to Real Madrid in the UEFA Champions League second-leg quarter-final tie on Tuesday.

Okay.ng reports that Real Madrid, after sealing a spot in the Champions League semifinals will likely face Manchester City, with Pep Guardiola’s team leading Bayern Munich 3-0 in their quarterfinal with one leg to play.

A cagey opening 45 minutes looked similar to Madrid’s 2-0 win in the first leg of the quarterfinal tie as Chelsea came out strong before the visitors settled into the game and were largely in control up to half-time.

Marc Cucurella should have scored just before the half, but a scampering Thibaut Courtois blocked his close-range strike after the Spaniard was left all alone at the far post and the teams went into the break tied 0-0.

Any hopes Chelsea might have had of an improbable comeback were dashed when Rodrygo scored shortly before the hour mark — the celebrations starting well and truly in Madrid a little over 20 minutes later when the Brazilian doubled the lead for Carlo Ancelotti’s side.

Rodrygo finished off a sweeping counter-attack against a helpless Chelsea, who have lost all four games since Frank Lampard returned as interim manager.

The closing stages were almost academic and Real turned on the style with Federico Valverde teeing up Rodrygo’s second.

While Chelsea’s season will end trophy-less under their new American owners despite a £500 million pounds ($621 million) outlay on new players, 14-times European champions Madrid march on with Ancelotti eyeing the trophy for a fifth time.
