Real Madrid's Gravesen: I took out Vicente - and I'd do it again!

Real Madrid midfielder Thomas Gravesen admits he deliberately took out Valencia winger Vicente in Sunday's 2-1 defeat.

The Dane was sent-off for his lunge and said: "It was a counter-attack and I had to take him down. I don't regret it and I would do it again if I had to."

"I couldn't take the chance and let him continue his run."

"I didn't think it would be a red card but I still have to adapt to the Spanish style of refereeing."
