Chelsea flirted with a classic Champions League victory after Timo Werner scored to give the Blues a 4-3 aggregate lead at the Santiago Bernabeu on Tuesday.
Real Madrid logged a statement 3-1 away win in the first leg but faced the prospect of a disastrous quarterfinal elimination following Mason Mount’s fine finish, Antonio Rudiger’s header, and Werner’s dribbling deflected shot.
However, Real Madrid substitute Rodrygo leveled the tie just five minutes later.
