Marcelo makes handball admission after helping Real Madrid to Champions League final

After helping Real Madrid to the Champions League final, Marcelo has conceded that he was perhaps fortunate to get away with a handball shout during a clash with Bayern Munich.

With the contest locked at 1-1 on the night, Bayern were pushing hard for a crucial second away goal.
