Chelsea owner Todd Boehly was left regretting his pre-match prediction after the Blues slumped to a less than inspiring defeat to Real Madrid in the Champions League.
The Blues travelled to Spain on Wednesday evening keen to earn a positive result ahead of the second leg at Stamford Bridge next week. A number of familiar failings saw them come unstuck at the Santiago Bernabeu though.
Karim Benzema opened the scoring in the first-half as he latched onto Vinicius Jr's clever cross. The advantage was doubled by Marco Asensio from range after left-back Ben Chilwell had seen red for a last man challenge.
