Wednesday 08-04-2026
Real Madrid defender Rüdiger spoke to the media after the loss against Bayern Munich by two goals to one, in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals, in the match held at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium.

The German defender said: "We started the second half and conceded a goal immediately. For me, the two goals we conceded were like gifts. I think we needed more in the second half."

He added: "There were many chances for Mbappe. We had many opportunities to score more goals, but in the end, we ended up as it happened..."

He continued about the team's pressure points: "Yes, we talked about these matters, about not losing the ball easily. Look at the two goals. At this level, this is extremely dangerous."

He concluded about the lack of effectiveness in front of the goal: "I think we need to shoot more on goal. Today, the best player for Bayern was their goalkeeper, Neuer."
