Real must ‘suffer again’
ZINEDINE Zidane (pictured) says Real Madrid must heed the lessons from its Juventus scare in order to finish off Bayern Munich in next week’s Champions League semi-final, return leg.
Real took a step closer to a third straight European title after Marco Asensio hit the winner in a 2-1 first-leg comeback victory in Munich yesterday.
But having suffered a scare at home in the quarterfinals, when Juventus won 3-1 in Madrid after Real had beaten them 3-0 in Turin, Zidane is on his guard.
“We will have to fight in the second leg, nothing is decided,” he said.
“We will have to suffer again and face Bayern in a different way at home, because if we don’t, we could have a bad result next week.”
The hosts took the lead through Joshua Kimmich, but Marcelo equalised before the break. Substitute Asensio hit Real’s winner after finishing a counter-attack to seal the win.
