CHELSEA booked their spot in the Champions League final after beating Real Madrid 2-0 at Stamford Bridge.
The Blues will now face Manchester City – who demolished Paris Saint-Germain on Tuesday night – in Istanbul.
But how did Chelsea’s players fare in Wednesday’s West London showdown en route to a 3-1 aggregate victory? Here are SunSport’s ratings…
Edouard Mendy – 10
Made a pair of world class saves from Karim Benzema in the first half to keep Chelsea in control of the tie.
A calming presence after the break and Blues coasted into the final.
Andreas Christensen – 8
He was solid and putting himself about physically, not letting Real Madrid’s attackers settle too much on the ball.
Thiago Silva – 8
Lead by example and was confident and composed at the heart of the defence again. Made it look easy at times.
Antonio Rudiger – 9
The German defender was riled and well up for this, as he played in his face mask.
His storming runs forward with the ball troubled Madrid, and he defended like a maniac.

Cesar Azpilicueta – 8
Used his experience wisely to win free kicks or to break up potential counter attacks.
His presence and experience was definitely a plus for Chelsea tonight.
N’Golo Kante – 9
Kante was being Kante, breaking up play, not giving Real Madrid any time to settle on the ball.
He defended his heart out, and even helped create the goal for Timo Werner in the first half.
Jorginho – 9
Did well to compose himself after being booked early on and was instrumental in a lot of Chelsea’s play.
Made many great interceptions and defended very well.
Ben Chilwell – 7
Decent game, but he seemed to be bothered by an early tussle with Vincius Jr that continued to put him off. He largely defended well against the pacy Brazilian though.
Mason Mount – 8
He was everywhere again and is such an important player for Chelsea’s intensity and counter attacks.
Could have made better decisions with some of his passes in the final third though.
Took his late goal well to send Chelsea to the final.
Timo Werner – 8
Really could not miss his first-half goal.
But again he was a nuisance to the Real Madrid backline with his pace and intense pressing and he attacked well with the ball.
Kai Havertz – 8
Same as Mount, he could have made better decisions in the final third at times, but his overall game and work rate was excellent.
He looked to be a threat whenever he got the ball.
