Chelsea’s Mason Mount swept the ball past Thibaut Courtois to reignite Tuesday’s Champions League decider against Real Madrid.
The Blues, who fell 3-1 at Stamford Bridge in the opening leg of their quarterfinal meeting with the Spanish giants, were given hope of keeping their Champions League defense alive thanks to Mount’s 15th-minute opener.

Mount is just the third Englishman to score a Champions League goal against Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu, following Leeds United’s Alan Smith (2001) and Arsenal’s Danny Welbeck (2013).
The goal kickstarted a wild affair in the Spanish capital, as Real Madrid recovered from three consecutive Chelsea tallies and, despite losing the match, did enough to claim a 5-4 aggregate triumph in extra time.
