Thomas Tuchel hit out in his post-match interview questioning how he could smile after seeing his Chelsea side lose 3-1 to Real Madrid.
The defeat at Stamford Bridge leaves the Blues with an uphill task ahead of the return leg in the Spanish capital. The defending European champions produced a poor first-half showing as they went in 2-1 down at the break before a catastrophic error from Edouard Mendy gifted Madrid a third second into the second 45.
Karim Benzema was the man to net all three and it means Chelsea will have to win by at least two goals to force extra-time in the Bernabeu. Los Blancos were able to seize on several errors by the home side, which will have come as a huge frustration to their German manager.
