Chelsea vs Real Madrid LIVE: Result and reaction from Champions League quarter-final as Blues crash out

54 mins: Eder Militao fouls Trevoh Chalobah and gifts Chelsea a free kick. The Chelsea fans want him sent off as Militao is already on a yellow card but no further punishment is forthcoming and the visitors then defend the set piece.

51 mins: Blocked! Chelsea come close again. Kai Havertz drives the ball down the right side and whips in a cross. Eder Militao leaps ahead of N’Golo Kante and tries to nod the ball clear.

Instead it comes to Conor Gallagher who heads it back to Kante. Kante shoots but Militao recovers from his position on the floor to jump in front of the shot and make the block.

Wonderful defending.

48 mins: Vinicius Jr tries to weave and dip away from Wesley Fofana and goes down easily. The replays show that Fofana didn’t touch him and Vinicius’ play acting wins Real Madrid a free kick.

The ball is crossed into the middle but Trevoh Chalobah leaps high and flicks the ball behind for a corner that the Blues deal with without too much trouble.

Real Madrid get the game back underway for potentially the final 45 minutes unless Chelsea can score twice. Carlo Ancelotti has made a change at the break with Antonio Rudiger replacing David Alaba.

Chelsea substitutes could prove to be crucial in this tie. There’s more than enough quality on the bench for them to change this game.

When will Frank Lampard decide to bring in reinforcements?

Real Madrid haven’t been great. They’ve had moments of brilliance, Vinicius Jr and Luka Modric both could have scored, but as a whole the European champions haven’t done much.

Chelsea have been better, they’ve created eight chances to score but only two of them were on target and Thibaut Courtois couldn’t be beaten.

Will the Blues finally score in the second half?

45+2 mins: That was a very good half for Chelsea who have done everything but get the ball in the back of the net. Marc Cucurella’s opportunity on the stroke of half-time was the chance of the night so far.

The Blues need to stick to their guns, if they can score first then they right in this tie.

45 mins: What a save!

Chelsea work the ball brilliantly down the right side and give the ball to Reece James who fizzes a cross into the box. It skips all the way through to Marc Cucurella who brings it under control then blasts a shot at goal only for Thibaut Courtois to leap across and stop the ball with his body.

Incredible goalkeeping!

41 mins: Close! Luka Modric drifts out to the right side of the pitch and is given the ball by Karim Benzema. Modric runs into space and drills a low cross into the box.

Vinicius Jr gets in behind Wesley Fofana and meets the ball but his guided effort is pushed wide of the nearest post!
