Cristiano Ronaldo, Zinedine Zidane Talk Real Madrid Progression Against Juve

Real Madrid's penalty hero Cristiano Ronaldo can't understand the complaints from Juventus players following their dramatic and controversial aggregate win over the Italian side in the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday.

After trailing 3-0 from the first leg of the tie, Juve produced a heroic performance at the Santiago Bernabeu to level the contest before a controversial late penalty was awarded to Los Blancos after Medhi Benatia was deemed to have fouled Lucas Vazquez.

Goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon was sent off for protesting the decision to referee Michael Oliver, while Ronaldo kept his cool amid dramatic scenes to strike home the kick and put Madrid in the semi-finals.
