'We have to play like the first leg': Karim Benzema and Carlo Ancelotti insist Chelsea still pose a danger for Real Madrid as Spanish papers gear up for return tie... as L'Equipe hammer home the striker's Ballon d'Or credentials

Karim Benzema and Carlo Ancelotti both feature heavily in the continental sport pages this morning, as they continued to insist Real Madrid must repeat their Champions League quarter-final first leg performance against Chelsea to progress.

The veteran striker settled the first clash with a sensational hat-trick, putting the deflated Blues to the sword and ensuring they have a mountain to climb tonight.

This season, he has scored 37 goals in as many games across all competitions, with 11 coming in Europe to help his side reach the final four.
