Juventus striker Fernando Llorente has admitted that he was pleased with the performance of his side in the 2-2 draw with Real Madrid in Group B of the Champions League.

Llorente scored Juve's equaliser after Real had overturned a 1-0 deficit to claim what the Spaniard saw as a vital point ahead of the final two games in the group.

"I think we have played a very good game today, we saw a strong Juve, a Juve side fully aware of what was at stake," he told UEFA.com. "We managed to earn a very important point especially considering that Galatasaray lost in Copenhagen.

"The group is still very open and if we win the next two games, I think we will qualify."

Juve are currently bottom of the group but have now played Real twice.
