MADRID CRUSHED CHELSEA
Rodrygo points the way for Real Madrid to the Champions League 'semis' (0-2)
With a global of 0-4, Real Madrid has sentenced its pass to the semifinals of the Champions League for the third consecutive year, without speculating. A brace from Rodrygo Goes silenced Stamford Bridge and illuminated the White House
Third semifinals followed for the Real Madrid, that knows very very what is to dominate in the Champions League and quand signed an eliminatory solvent against Chelsea to surpass the round a year more and dream with the fifteenth. In spite of the good intention of the 'blues' in big stretch of the party, a doublet of Rodrygo Goes silenció to the Stamford Bridge for confrmar the pass of the White House.
The Real Madrid arrived to the Stamford Bridge with an advantage inmejorable of by two goals to zero, but with the recent memory, of the Champions League past, in which almost it remains without ticket to the semifinals having an identical difference in the eliminatory. They could not commit the same errors neither trust, especially because although Chelsea is not the most worked team of Europe (and is far to be it), has too individual talent and went to look for put in the eliminatory prompt.
Carlo Ancelotti, thus, decided to reward to the same eleven footballers that carried the triumph does a week in Santiago Bernabéu, with a quite offensive disposal to try control the balloon from the first minutes, but the intensity and high block of the 'blues' carried them to step backwards and look for take care the backs. Frank Lampard found the formula to be able to advance by the sides, especially in the duel Reece James-Camavinga that began winning the English, and surrounding to Kai Havertz so that it was not only, as in past occasions. The proposal was much better that in Madrid, but in front had to an old fellow: Thibaut Courtois.
Courtois, the protagonist of always
And it is that, although the Madrid did not offer his best version in the first 45 minutes, showed that it can generate danger with very little and that, also, knows to shake of the pressure. By the solvency of the central and also by the presence of a Courtois that, as in the gone, dressed of hero to save to his. The recipe of each party, that allowed to brake to the venues because, further of a shot of Rodrygo to the stick and another of Luka Modric that braked Kepa, as well as the confined of Vinicius, went Chelsea the one who more proposed.
Kanté Or Havertz tested luck, but was Cucurella the one who had the clearest occasion to put the 1-0 before the rest after hunting the balloon, only, in the second stick. It commanded a big shot, but Courtois exasperated him with an atajadón imperial to avoid that his exequipo put in the eliminatory. It answered to the whistles of the terracing with paradón and, also, besándose the shield madridista.
What desaprovecha Chelsea, does not fail it the Madrid
As it finished the first part, began the second. Chelsea was convinced that it could surprise to the Madrid and was very near in a pair of occasions... But without tarpaulin in the last metres. Kanté Went back to errar in his definition and Kai Havertz left a finish very toneless that hunted without problems Courtois. There, the ones of Lampard understood something: if you do not take advantage of what have, afterwards the Madrid kills you.
And like this it happened, with the Brazilian combination that every time is more efficient. Rodrygo Received a pass filtered by the band to win him the career to Chalobah and command a good centre that fell in the boots of Vinicius Jr, the one who gave him back the balloon so that the '20' defined to his antojo and, as it happened does a year but in Madrid, gave the firm step to the semifinals. It had been the first of the ones of Ancelotti.
Of the attempts of Chelsea to the to resistance madridista
With the marker against, the ones of Lampard did not give by defeated, but knew that it was very slope up and that the Madrid went to shut to defend (the change of Benzema by Tchouameni left it clear), but between a shot of Enzo Fernández and another of Reece James, Chelsea was supported by hopes, but without the feeling that them 'reached' to impose in his field.
