Jose Mourinho's side were 2-0 winners this evening at the Bernabeu but lost 4-3 on aggregate after trailing 4-1 from the first leg.

Ronaldo is quoted by Sky Sports News as saying: "The first leg was key but today we have demonstrated that we are a team that could be in the final.

"We missed chances. We scored too late. I want to congratulate the fans for their support.
