"I think [Manuel] Neuer was MVP. We had so many chances to score more goals, but we didn't do it. We lose two balls, and they score two goals, so we can't lose these types of balls because their players are so fast and so quick and have so much quality."
"Anyone who doesn't believe that should stay in Madrid. I have players with a lot of personality, and the first thing they said in the locker room was that we're going to win there."
"It's all about opening the scoring. We had chances to score more, but in the end, that's how it goes. We need to shoot more, but on target. But today, Bayern's best player was the goalkeeper, Neuer."
Real Madrid lost the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final against Bayern Munich 2-1. Kylian Mbappe scored for Madrid after goals from Luis Diaz and Harry Kane. Both teams had 20 shots, but Bayern capitalized on Madrid's defensive errors. Manuel Neuer made nine saves, equaling Lionel Messi's Champions League starts. Alvaro Arbeloa expressed frustration over missed chances but remains confident in a comeback. Antonio Rudiger echoed this sentiment, emphasizing the need for better finishing and acknowledging Neuer's performance.
