For now, the merengue group had to suffer much less than in the last edition in which “la Orejona” was uploaded for the fourteenth time: beat Chelsea 2-0 in London to go 4-0 on aggregate.
Rodrigo was the hero of Madridista tonight in which, at the age of 22, he reached 15 goals in the Champions League: he scored a double in the second half which took away any illusion from a weak Chelsea.
Real Madrid now await the team that qualifies in the series between Manchester City and Bayern Munichwho have a 3-0 advantage over the English after the first game.

Min. 55. Slowly, Chelsea grow with nothing to lose and try another shot, a loose one from Havertz straight into the hands of Courtois.
Min. 52. Another chance for Kante to miss in the Real Madrid area, again with a first class shot that was now blocked by Militao at the height of the six.
Min. 50. Rhys James has booked Chelsea: he will miss the first leg of the semi-final if his side qualify today.
Min. 48. Chelsea continue to lack the ability to create anything through the center of the pitch, apart from their overflows on the wing. Complicated ground for his return this way.
The second half has begun: Antonio Rudiger replaced David Alaba at Real Madrid.
In the other quarter-final game, Milan beat Napoli 1-0 at home and take a 2-0 lead on aggregate.
End of first half: Chelsea and Real Madrid draw 0-0.
Min. 45+1. Courtois’ cleanest save of the match: the Belgian’s save to keep out Cucurella’s goal, which came in off the far post to finish off another James cross from the right. The Spaniard had time to control the ball and everything but failed to make it 1-0.
Min. 45. Two minutes added.
Min. 42. After a poorly taken Chelsea corner, there was a frenetic counter-attack from Real Madrid that resulted in Valverde’s cross for Benzema wide forward and the Frenchman’s shot saved.
Min. 40. Modric’s cross to Vinicius who reaches the far post but fails to finish well.
Min. 36. Another Chelsea attack from the right: James’ wall with Kante and the Englishman’s cross which Alaba managed to clear in the area of the hexagons.
Min. 34. Marc Cucurella rebuke at Chelsea.
Min. 32. Drink again! The Spanish keeper stops a shot from Modric, who missed from the right side of the area.
Min. 31. Weak shot from Benzema, straight to Kepa’s body.
Min. 30. Gallagher’s header saved from Cucurella’s cross: all ruled out for offside by the Spaniard.
Min. 26. Chelsea are reaching the areas around the Real Madrid area, although they are yet to bring on Thibaut Courtois.
Min. 22. Éder Militao scolded Real Madrid: he will not be able to play the first leg of the semi-final if the team qualifies.
Min. 20. Real Madrid’s first shot: Rodrigo’s effort misses, hitting the outside of the post nearer to Kepa.
Min. 18. Rodrigo reached to outrun Chaloba and crossed into the area, but the ball went wide before Benzema could control it.
Min. 15. The right wing is where Chelsea look to attack and where they are slowly tightening Real Madrid’s grip, with James and a Kavanagh not entirely off to a good start.
Min. 10. Chelsea missed it: Kante set up a poor volley in front of goal, on a ball that stayed in the box after Havertz couldn’t finish James’ cross.
Min. 8. The most worrying thing about the game for Real Madrid at the moment is seeing Benzema walk with some difficulty after being trampled by Thiago Silva.
Min. 5. Chelsea are coming out with a very high pressure that they didn’t show in Madrid, but that has yet to lead Real Madrid into a mistake.
The match has begun!
The teams take to the pitch at Stamford Bridge: kick-off is approaching.
