Fans say ‘Roy Keane won’t be happy’ as they spot Chelsea and Real Madrid stars sitting together in the tunnel

FOOTBALL fans joked Roy Keane would be seething after Chelsea and Real Madrid stars chilled together in the tunnel.

The Blues and Los Blancos went head to head in their Champions League quarter-final.

Joao Felix and Mateo Kovacic joined Eder Militao, Vinicius Junior and Luka Modric in the Stamford Bridge tunnel

Real won both legs 2-0, including at Stamford Bridge on Tuesday.

But after Chelsea were dumped out by two Rodrygo goals, two of their players were spotted hanging out with three Madrid men.

A picture from inside the tunnel showed Joao Felix and Mateo Kovacic sitting on the steps of the tunnel with Eder Militao, Vinicius Junior and Luka Modric.

Kovacic spent three years with Real and is a Croatian team-mate of Modric but while Portuguese Felix speaks the same language as Brazilian duo Militao and Vinicius, he is on loan from rivals Atletico Madrid.

But plenty of fans were not having any of it and did not want to see rivals socialising together after the tie.

One said: “Roy Keane will not be happy…”

Another wrote: “The game has changed but you would NEVER find Drogba, Terry or Lampard sitting with the opposing team after a Champions League loss at the Bridge.”

A third added: “Who invited Felix? What’s the connection? Bro thinks he’s part of them.”

A fourth joked: “Vini Jr wondering why Felix is sitting down with them.”

And a final user simply typed: “Game is gone.”

Hilariously, though, Real Madrid supporters were getting worried by the photo – because they were scared Felix would want to join the 14-time European champions.

Chelsea paid £14million including wages to take Felix on loan from Atleti but it has not worked out as planned.

He has managed just two goals in 15 appearances, was sent off on his debut and found himself on the bench last night in Chelsea’s biggest game of the season.
