CAIRO – 26 April 2018: Despite their amazing 2-1 away victory over Bayern Munich at UEFA Champions League semi-finals first leg, Real Madrid Spanish captain, Sergio Ramos, believes that the team still has a tough mission in Madrid to reach the final.
“We haven't achieved anything yet and have to keep cool and show Bayern respect. We now have to finish the job off at the Bernabéu,” Ramos told the club’s official website after the game.
Real Madrid were 1-0 down after a goal by Joshua Kimmich but they returned in the game by two goals from Marcelo Vieira and Marco Asensio to win the game 2-1.
“The team was solid and we showed we could dig in. It's really tough to come and play here (Munich), against great opposition and fans worthy of the Champions League,” added the Spaniard.
The captain praised Lucas Vázquez after his great performance in the game, saying “Lucas gave his all. After Carvajal got injured he had to defend against Ribéry, who is one of the top players around.”
Vázquez started the game at the right wing and he had to play as a right back for 30 minutes after Dani Carvajal’s injury; he also provided the second goal assist to Asensio.
