“Chelsea squad have to do this and beat Real Madrid” – Kevin Campbell gives ‘one big reason’ why Chelsea will beat Real Madrid
According to Arsenal legend Kevin Campbell has backed Chelsea to beat Real Madrid at Stamford Bridge and qualify for the UEFA Champions League semi-finals despite the 2-0 loss in the first leg.
However, Campbell told Sky Sports: “What Frank Lampard and the Chelsea squad have to do is look at the chances they created.
“Joao Felix had a couple, Sterling had one that was brilliantly saved by Courtois. You’ve got to get that first goal at Stamford Bridge. Get the fans involved and then you make life a little more difficult for Real Madrid. That’s they key.
“If Madrid score first, then it’s going to be a mountain to climb. But it can be done. We’ve seen Real Madrid win this tournament so many times. But they are not the same team at this moment.
“The Madrid of last season would probably have won this game by three or four. But 2-0, I think Chelsea do have a slight chance.”
He added: “What Chelsea have to do, they have to get a goal. They have to get a goal from somewhere. That’s the only thing that is going to help Chelsea get past this Real Madrid side. They’ve got to score first.”
