In order to secure their first victory in the UEFA Champions League, Madrid's "Real" club needed a little bit of magic. In the 89th minute, Zinedine Zidane's pupils were trailing 0:1 against Lisbon's "Sporting," but Cristiano Ronaldo and Alvaro Morata's strikes caused a storm at the "Santiago Bernabeu" stadium - 2:1. "We are happy because we fought until the end of the match and did not give up. Sometimes you face an opponent who plays very well, but my players were incredible. They put in all the effort and were rewarded," - said the "Real" coach after the match. "The coach's job is to make substitutions and I'm glad that today they paid off. The new footballers are put on the field to change the course of the game, and that's exactly what happened today," - the Frenchman spoke about the decision to give Morata and James Rodriguez a chance to show themselves.
