The Real Madrid manager has stated that despite getting the all important away goal, Manchester United are running nowhere in the Champions League tie.
The most highly anticipated Champions league matchup between Manchester United and Real Madrid provided no heartbreaks as the match lived fully up to the high expectations that were associated with it.
Manchester United and Real Madrid are considered as probably the top two most well known clubs in the entire world when it comes to the general eye of any child, who talks up football.
The two names are considered brands in themselves and the tie was considered as the tie of the round as the whites of Madrid hosted the Reds of Manchester.
The match ended 1-1 and provided ample entertainment for the viewers, living up to the anticipation and hype that was gifted to the occasion.

point.
The script was well written for the boy who had made his name from his time at the Old Trafford based giants as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Cristiano-Ronaldo-c9629 rose up to the occasion and restored parity between the two sides.
The former Manchester United man rose above all the Reds, in the white shirt, and stood still in the air for some gravity defying moments, to head past the helpless http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-de-Gea-c10463.
The score-line stayed intact till the final whistle and with Manchester United getting the advantage of the away goal, Jose Mourinho still thinks that the tie is perfectly balanced.
"I think they gave everything," Mourinho told Sky Sports after the match. "But again it was difficult because we started off well. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Fabio-c13152 [Coentrao] had a really good chance when he hit the post, then the first time they go in our half they score a goal out
of nothing. “
"To be losing 1-0 is not a good situation. After halftime they tried but Man U played for the result. Their defense was deep but now it is our time to go to Old Trafford and I think 1-1 is not a bad result because everything is open and we can score more than
one goal there."
The second leg will be played at Manchester United’s home in a fort-night’s time.
