The Blancos' 6-1 away win in Germany against Schalke 04 was the latest example of the huge chasm between the top few clubs and those who are just happy to be in the knockout stage.Real Madrid have turned in a clinical away performance to thrash Schalke 04 6-1 and stand on the brink of
the quarter-finals after their Champions League last 16 first leg tie on Wednesday.The French international Karim Benzema, Welshman Gareth Bale and Cristiano Ronaldo all scored twice respectively in a one-sided victory for Carlo Ancelotti's men at the Veltins Arena,Germany.A consolation goal from Dutchman Klaas-Jan Huntelaar for the Bundesliga outfit.Shalk 04 gave everything. But against a team like Real Madrid it is always very difficult to get into the duels, because they move the ball so fluently.
Finally,the return leg of their last-16 tie now appears to be a formality for the nine-time champions at the Santiago Bernabeu on March 18.
