Ramos: Victorious Real Madrid deserved more against Bayern Munich

Sergio Ramos believes Real Madrid deserved more
following their narrow win at Bayern Munich in the
Champions League, though the captain refused to
get carried away.
Titleholders Madrid came from behind to beat 10-
man Bayern 2-1 as Cristiano Ronaldo scored twice
in the first leg of their quarter-final tie at Allianz
Arena on Wednesday.
Arturo Vidal opened the scoring in the 25th minute
and missed a penalty before half-time, and it came
back to haunt Bayern, who had Javier Martinez
sent off after the hour as Ronaldo took centre
stage.
Ramos hailed the result away from home, but the
centre-back was left wanting more ahead of the
return fixture in the Spanish capital on April 18.
"We've taken a big step in the tie, but there's still
the return leg to come against great opposition,
who have shown that they're one of the favourites
to win the competition," Ramos said.
"The tie remains very much open, but you have to
congratulate the team on the performance.
"We had to dig in during the first half, but we
showed that we knew how to set ourselves up on
the pitch. In the second half, we had a bit more
control and dominated more of the play and that
saw us create a lot of chances. Some of these
ended up in goals and we come away from here
keen to have scored another, which would have
made things more comfortable in the return leg.
"However, we're happy and are satisfied to have
got a win here, which is always very important."
