Joao Felix slammed in Spanish press for his 'forgettable' performance in Chelsea's Champions League defeat to Real Madrid... with Marca claiming Los Blancos' win 'shows that football is a team game rather than about one individual'

Joao Felix has been slammed in the Spanish press for his 'forgettable' display in Chelsea's Champions League defeat to Real Madrid.

The Blues suffered a 2-0 defeat at the Santiago Bernabeu after goals from Karim Benzema and substitute Marco Asensio, while Ben Chilwell was also shown a straight red card for Frank Lampard's side.

However, the match could have gone so differently if Felix scored a golden opportunity in the second minute of the game.

There had been a lot of talk about the Portuguese player before the game, with suggestions that he would be looking to prove a point on his return to Spain as he is on loan from Atletico Madrid.
