Romelu Lukaku had a fairly straightforward chance to score a second goal for Chelsea against Real Madrid. Still, the £97.5million striker was unable to find the target. It means that Los Blancos go into next week's second-leg with a 3-1 advantage.
Lukaku, who was signed by the Blues for a club-record fee last summer, was brought on around an hour into the tie at Stamford Bridge. Thomas Tuchel called upon the Belgian when Chelsea were in desperate need of a goal, and he had a golden chance to grant his manager's wish.
A cross on the left-hand side was deflected, leaving Thibaut Courtois absolutely stranded in between the posts, and Lukaku had the goal gaping in front of him. He was completely free. His header, though, went just wide of the post.
