Real Madrid defeated Chelsea 2-0 in their Champions League quarter-final clash at the Santiago Bernabéu.

Madrid will visit Stamford Bridge for the second leg next week, and Chelsea legend Joe Cole has warned that the tie is far from over.

“It’s not over. It was a hard night and the moments went to Real but they’re the champions and an outstanding team,” Cole told BT Sport.

“Chelsea came here and there were some first half moments with good chances, and the positive is they’re still in it and they showed character, heart and fight to stay in there and dig in.

“This is the hardest place to come to in European football.”
