Raul: Real Madrid only team on pitch

By Frank Henriksen

Real Madrid's players insist they were robbed after defeat at Juventus last night.

Real skipper Raul declared: "They started strong, but in the second half we were the only team on the field. Coming back from 2-0 down costs a lot and we leave with a bad taste in our mouth.

"But if we win every home game, we will qualify early."

Real defender Pepe added: "We must begin more focused because Juve had two chances and scored two goals. We are angry and we have learned the lesson. The next game is fundamental to achieving qualification."
