WATCH: Antonio Rudiger scores crucial penalty to send Real Madrid into the UCL semifinal | All goals and extended highlights.

 Former Chelsea star Antonio Rudiger put Real Madrid into the Champions League semi-finals, not only by scoring the winning penalty against Manchester City on Wednesday but also by keeping Erling Haaland quiet across the tie. 

The German defender's two strong displays against City's Norwegian hitman helped Madrid hold their own across 210 minutes of thrilling quarter-final action, ending in a 4-4 aggregate draw before the shoot-out. After Luka Modric missed for Madrid and their goalkeeper Andriy Lunin denied Bernardo Silva and Mateo Kovacic, Rudiger completed the 4-3 penalty triumph over the reigning champions.

The centre-back strolled calmly up to the penalty spot and drilled a low effort in off the post, beating Manchester City goalkeeper Ederson even though he dived the right way.

  Stamford Bridge will be completely filled with Chelsea fans looking to push our women’s team forward to another UEFA Women’s Champions League final.

However as manager Emma Hayes said right after that match last weekend, that was only half-time.

We need to match that intensity and quality if we are to come out today with the final tickets on hand. Chelsea starting lineup (4-3-3): Hampton | Lawrence, Carter, Buchanan, Charles (c) | Cuthbert, Leupolz, Nüsken | James, Macario, Kaneryd Substitutes from: Musovic, Bright, Ingle, Reiten, Kirby, Périsset, Mjelde, Cankovic, Beever-Jones, Björn Barcelona starting eleven: Coll | Paredes, Paralluelo, Graham, Patri, Aitana, Bronze, Rolfö...
