Emilio Butragueno bemoans missed chances

Real Madrid director of institutional relations Emilio Butragueno bemoans his team's missed chances in Sunday's 2-1 defeat at Barcelona in La Liga.

Real Madrid director of institutional relations Emilio Butragueno believes that his team deserved to beat Barcelona in El Clasico on Sunday.

Los Blancos went down 2-1 in the La Liga clash at Camp Nou, but Butragueno has claimed that missed opportunities ultimately cost the capital side the chance to claim all the points.

"We're saddened by the result because in the first half we dominated them, created chances and played really well," Butragueno told reporters. "In big games like this, everyone has their moments, but we didn't take ours. We missed some clear chances.

"After we got back to 1-1 we were the superior team but at 2-1 we were a little down. In the end it was decided by two or three moves - and Barca were more accurate. We had some very clear chances, particularly [Gareth] Bale's following a corner. We lacked that little bit of luck to get the second. If we had scored, I think we'd have given much more. It was a shame."

Cristiano Ronaldo scored Real Madrid's equaliser after 31 minutes.
