Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has applauded his players following their recent win vs Chelsea in the Uefa Champions League on Wednesday night.

The Spanish side hosted Chelsea at the Santiago Bernabeu where they defeated the Blues 2-0 thanks to goals from Karim Benzema and Marco Asensio.

Real Madrid’s win have given them a good advantage ahead of the second leg of their Champions League quarter-final.

Ahead of next week’s game at Stamford Bridge, Ancelotti in a post-match statement urged his players to play a complete game in the second leg as they did in the first leg.

He said: “We have to do it with a complete game like we played tonight, it was a complete game tonight from the start.

“Against 10 men we could have done a bit more, but against 11 we had used a lot of energy, pressing them to win the ball, and after that we lacked a bit of energy and clarity to do better.”
