Juventus fullback Daniel Alves: Real Madrid simply better

Juventus fullback Daniel Alves admits they were outclassed by Real Madrid in the Champions League final.

Real were comfortable 4-1 winners in Cardiff.

“We had managed to score the equaliser, but in the second half Real Madrid simply played better," the Brazilian told Mediaset Premium.

“I think it was the approach we expected from them. The difference was we didn't defend as well as we usually do.

“If we don't keep the concentration and intensity levels at the top all the way through, Real Madrid can hurt you straight away with the talent at their disposal."
