Chelsea's defending of their Champions League crown reached a conclusion with an extra-time rout to Real Madrid.
A 3-1 first-leg deficiency was cleared out by objectives from Mason Mount and Antonio Rudiger before Timo Werner put the Blues ahead on total at the Bernabeu.
Be that as it may, Rodrygo polished off a superb Luka Modric pass before Karim Benzema struck the telling blow in the additional 30 minutes.
This is the way Chelsea players were appraised against Real Madrid...
Edouard Mendy - 8
Pulled off a few significant recoveries from a distance. Couldn't keep out Rodrygo.
Reece James - 8
Reserved for pulling back Vinicius in the main hall, however, it was a decent one to take. Playing full-back didn't prevent him from getting forward into hazardous regions.
Thiago Silva - 9
Indispensable capture attempts cut out what not many openings Real made. Overseen Benzema sublimely.
Antonio Rudiger - 9
Unshakable protectively and squeezed high to put Real on the back foot. Splendid objective.
Marcos Alonso - 8
A truly compelling outlet on the left, every now and again taking care of Werner. Appalling to see his objective precluded for handball.
N'Golo Kante - 8
Subbed at half-time in the primary leg - absolutely predominant for most of this game. Amassed Real's midfield.
Ruben Loftus-Cheek - 9
His sharp footwork got him out of such countless restricted spaces and permitted Chelsea to break the press in the midfield. It over and over opened Real up.
Mateo Kovacic - 9
Loaded with hurrying to assist Chelsea with overwhelming Real in the center of the recreation area. A crate to-box execution. Splendid.
Mason Mount - 9
The superbly taken goal was exactly what Chelsea required. Oftentimes broke the lines with his runs from profound.
Kai Havertz - 8
A truly unselfish presentation, following back and getting the ball in profound and wide regions. So near scoring before Real's adjuster.
Timo Werner - 9
What an objective. What an aggravation to Real. Perhaps his best execution in a Chelsea shirt, with his very presence startling the life out of Real's protectors.
Substitutes
Christian Pulisic (Werner, 83') - 4
How expensive his two burned through possibilities toward the finish of typical time ended up being.
Hakim Ziyech (Kante, 100') - 5
Gotten an opportunity to send it to penalties, however, was denied by Courtois.
Jorginho (Kovacic, 116') - 5
Late an opportunity to be a legend, yet all at once hauled his shot wide.
Saul Niguez (Loftus-Cheek, 116') - 5
Kept up the energy with the last push.
Subs unused: Kepa, Bettinelli, Christensen, Chalobah, Azpilicueta, Sarr, Vale
