Rio Ferdinand had Joe Cole in stitches with his reaction to Real Madrid’s goals v Chelsea

Rio Ferdinand couldn’t contain his excitement after watching Luka Modric and Karim Benzema work their magic for Real Madrid against Chelsea in the Champions League on Tuesday night.

The Manchester United legend was covering the quarter-final second leg for BT Sport alongside fellow ex-England internationals Joe Cole and Steve McManaman.

Chelsea, who lost the first leg 3-1 at Stamford Bridge, were on the brink of completing a stunning comeback after taking a 3-0 lead at the Bernabeu by the 75th minute. 

Goals from Mason Mount, Antonio Rudiger and Timo Werner put Thomas Tuchel’s side 4-3 up on aggregate in the Spanish capital.

However, Modric’s contender for the greatest assist in Champions League history set up Rodrygo to score the goal that sent the tie to extra-time.
