Real rely on Ramos again: Captain heads holders into quarter-finals

Real Madrid’s captain fantastic Sergio Ramos headed Real Madrid in the Champions League quarter-finals with two goals in six second half minutes. Madrid were given a first-half scare by Napoli who dominated and took the lead through Dries Mertens but the second period was a very different story. Zinedine Zidane’s team had forced only one corner in the first half but they won two at the start of the second 45 minutes and Ramos rose to head home both Toni Kroos kicks, the second via a huge deflection off Dries Mertens that was given by UEFA as an away goal.
