Spanish side Real Madrid took a 2-0 first leg lead as Karim Benzema and Marco Asensio struck for the Los Blancos as they dominated 10-man Chelsea in their quarter-final Champions League first leg on Wednesday. The record 14-time winners and reigning champions eased to a comfortable win against Frank Lampard's side, who had Ben Chilwell sent off in the second half for pulling down Rodrygo Goes as he ran through on goal. Despite controlling the game, Madrid had to wait until the 74th minute for their second, with Asensio drilling home from the edge of the box after a short corner routine. The 2nd leg will be played next week at the Stamford Bridge.
