Chelsea thrash Real Madrid 2-0, set up Champions League final against Man City

Chelsea on Wednesday night qualified for the Champions League final as they outclassed Real Madrid, beating them two goals to nothing at the Stamford Bridge, London.

Goals by Timo Werner and Mason Mount sent Chelsea into the final of the tournament and recorded a 3-1 aggregate victory over their opponent.

German striker Werner, who has endured a stuttering first season at Chelsea, put them in control when he nodded in one of the easiest goals of his career in the 28th minute after fellow German Kai Havertz had struck the bar.

Thirteen-time European champions Real, who had come through each of their last three Champions League semi-final ties, had been second best for much last week’s first leg which ended 1-1.

Even with talisman Sergio Ramos back after missing the home leg they were outplayed by Thomas Tuchel’s side again as the German coach continued his stunning impact in west London.

Chelsea should have killed the game as they created, and wasted, a load of chances in a dazzling second-half display.

But Mount’s close-range finish in the 86th minute meant the party could start in earnest.

The final in Istanbul will be the second all-English champions League final in three seasons.
