4-1 Madrid great run and pass from everyones favourite defender Pepe to Benzema who squares for Ronaldo to tap in, 6 goals in 6 games for Ronaldo and goal 42 of the season.

Full time result.

Away goals still count now?

Yes.

I can't work out who has the worse hairstyle - David Luiz or Hamsik.

Great goal

Yes.

I never understand that....

Both are lovely.

Drogba really is an extremely unpleasant little man isn't he. He should be fined for that acting display.

[paultheroyal]

Despite the miss Torres has been excellent since coming on.

Agree about Drogba.

[paultheroyal]

Did they clear up the rule about finishing 5th in a league yet winning Champions League aka Livetpool.

[sandman]

From what I saw of it CheLOLsea deserved to go through. However, with Drogba's play acting combined with Townsend yelping on commentary (I know you used to play for them Andy but a little bit of neutrality please) it's a shame they didn't go out.

Agree about Drogba.

Thought he did pretty well too, but wouldn't go so far as excellent.

As for Drogba, it's not something to be proud of, but he won them the game tonight and part of his contribution was the respite and possession that his play acting won.

Also, fair play to David Luiz, he also had an excellent game.

[Maguire]

Enjoyed that game and pleased to see Chelsea go through.

Also thought Torres did pretty well tbf to him. People may focus on the miss but he did a lot of other decent work tonight.

Ivanovic was fairly marauding throughout and it was a great finish to win it.

everyone celebrating at the end except torres you can see how little he gives a shit.

Yeh - never joined in with the celebrations when Ivanovic scored did he?

Gr8 game in the end, Torres's work r8 was fantastic and all round game was pretty good. 3 excellent finishes for the Chelsea goals as well.

Edit: Also liked Terry organising the team after he came off and telling Di Matteo what to say
