MADRID (Reuters) - Chelsea are looking forward to the challenge of being underdogs at Real Madrid in their Champions League quarter-final, first leg on Wednesday, interim manager Frank Lampard said.

Lampard got off to a losing start on his return to the hot seat at the club in a caretaker capacity on Saturday, with the Blues beaten 1-0 at Wolverhampton Wanderers.

"I think the Champions League sometimes offers you a bit of escapism from that - a different speed of game, knockout football, those things can all contribute to getting different success in the same season. Chelsea are 17 points off the top-four with eight Premier League games left so winning the Champions League is their only realistic road to Europe's elite competition for next season.

The Real Impact Of Pokémon Go's Changes That Niantic Won't FaceThe new restrictions on Remote Raids will change the game for rural and disabled players This entire article is written by someone who thought the game gives you starters, so they walked circles in their backyard because they wanted a pikachu instead(?). They caught a pikachu and never played again. It sounds dumb because it is. That’s who wrote this. Maybe you should stick to pandering to the woke brigade such as the JKR haters, unless I misunderstood the bit about the 2021 “boycott” you didn’t fully research it past speaking to 1 player who quit for a year. Niantic left the interaction distance at the covid bonus distance Just for reference, this article is written by someone who walked circles for like 20 mins in their backyard to get a pikachu like 5 years ago and then never played it again. That’s who’s writing this.
