But.I've lost more money than I've won.īenzema grabbed his second hat-trick in a row in the Champions League in the first leg against Chelsea, having previously stunned PSG with three goals to stun Messi & Co and end their petrol-dollar fuelled hunt for the Champions League title for another year. If my money was on it, I'd suggest that the hosts will step it up in the second half, and will score the one goal that should be enough.
A couple of half chances have come their way but not much more.Īnd it is for all of that, a general lack of threat from either side, although from different styles, that I can't decide who'll make the next key move. They are being forced into that pose.īut for all the reigning champions have controlled much of that 45 minutes, they have not been banging down Courtois' goal. Some may argue that Los Blancos have the luxury of sitting back, given how the first leg went, but it doesn't feel as though that is what they are choosing to do. But that soon changed.Ĭhelsea have not only won that half with the goal from Mount, a lovely strike from just inside the area as if bounced across him, but they have been the more dominant. Madrid were quick out of their home blocks, and suggested they still had somewhat of the UCL swagger that we've seen before, especially some of the link-up play between Benzema and Vinicius.
We reach half-time and if I'm honest I'm no less sure of how this tie is going to end.
