Tottenham sent out a message to their Premier League title rivals with Real Madrid draw, claims Rio Ferdinand

Tottenham have sent out a huge message to their Premier League title rivals by earning an impressive point at the home of Champions League holders Real Madrid, claims Rio Ferdinand.

An own goal from Raphael Varane gave Tottenham a surprise lead at the Bernabeu before Cristiano Ronaldo equalised from the spot. But Zinedine Zidane's men were unable to take advantage of their dominance and the game finished 1-1.

Although Tottenham rode their luck at times, Ferdinand believes the Premier League outfit will gain a massive boost in confidence after proving a match for one of the world's best sides.
