Overall, only Real Madrid have won more of their first 100 games in the Champions League (57). The only team to have failed to record a shot on target across two legs in this period was Deportivo La Coruña in the 2003-04 semi-finals against FC Porto. A good basis, but if they score one - like we felt against Inter - the game changes. Yeah, it's the strongest team." Asked if this is the best Liverpool squad he has had, Klopp said: "Yes. Since I'm here we've always had great teams. "I always try to get in the other coaches' shoes and there's different ways of expressing what you think and what you believe in every game. "We felt it when they scored last week. On that occasion Atletico showed little attacking intent and spent most of the game sitting back in the hope of frustrating Pep Guardiola's men. For the passion all the fans they have, there will be moments they will be so aggressive and create problems. We adapt and if we're losing we go with everything to get it back. We try to see the score in the last 5-10 minutes what it is. The fact he's back is incredible and we have a big schedule until the end of the season.

Real Madrid and Villarreal are the first teams through to this season's UEFA Champions League semi-finals.

Raúl Albiol leads a back line which lays the foundation for a side that has mastered the art of inviting their opponents on to them before transitioning quickly from defence into attack. Unai Emery's side desperately missed the injured Gerard Moreno for much of the campaign, but you have to give them credit for getting this far with their talismanic goalscorer reduced to a cameo role for large parts. When you throw in the fact they've already knocked out Juventus and Bayern, no less, anything is possible now they are in only their second ever Champions League semi-final.

If you play those matches you feel tired and you think: ‘It’s a crazy schedule.’ But we are focused on our goals and now that is Benfica.” Benfica respected us before, but during the game I am pretty sure they felt that they were close here and there. “I would try to put us under pressure, score early, and if not try to score a bit later. We play Benfica tomorrow and how can I sit here thinking about winning the Champions League? I don’t. We just try to squeeze everything out to stay as long in the competition as somehow possible and then be there in the final, hopefully, or in the league to make the last decisive step.” “We have a great fitness staff and we are training every day for that. We want to be in every match.

But as I type that, Havertz digs deep and sprints to close down Courtois ... who Cruyff-turns out of trouble! He's normally so good at these, but his mistimes his leap slightly, a combination of head and arm sending it wide of the near post, just. Chelsea will have to very precise. The holders are out! Chelsea get it into the box, the ball drops for Jorginho, and he shoots first time ... but Camavinga is there to block. Camavinga clears the corner but only as far as James, who knocks to Ziyech. He drags a shot that's headed wide, but Jorginho is in its path, his first touch a goodun ... but six yards out, he panics, unable to believe how much space he's in so close to goal, and he pulls a tame shot wide!

Los Blancos have an unexpectedly healthy lead going into the second leg of the Champions League quarter-final game, but a semi-final place is not assured.

Bayern Munich also arrived in Madrid in 2017 after losing at the Allianz Arena. They forced extra time, but Los Blancos went through to the next round. And it is also important to remember that the away goals rule that has decided many a European tie over the years has been scrapped this year. Real Madrid welcome Chelsea to the Estadio Santiago Bernabéu on Tuesday night with, some would say, more than half the work already done.
