It was the most awaited game of the ongoing 2022/2023 UEFA Champions League Competition, where 14 times Champions Real Madrid hosted 2 times Champions Chelsea in Madrid.
It was the first leg of the quarter-finals game and both teams looked hopeful coming into this game to seek an advantage in the second encounter.
The game which saw the visiting team starting strongly while dictating the pace of the game in the early hours, gave the Blues confidence while winning most 50/50 balls and having a greater share of possession. Their dominance was brought to a halt after the opening goal from the skipper of the side, Karim Benzema in the 22nd minute handed over to the home team the power as they have begun to dictate the pace of the game. Benzema’s goal was enough to separate the guys getting into the break.
The second department began smoothly for the home side as they continued to dominate possession which eventually resulted in an early shower for Benjamin Chilwell in the 59th minute after a challenge on Rodrygo, however, these went on to affect the Blues as Madrid doubled their lead from Asensio just 2 minutes on the field.
The home side then managed to control the game which eventually gave them the maximum advantage in getting into the second leg in London.
