Swansea's Rangel praises Dortmund but labels Real Madrid as 'powerless'

Swansea City defender Angel Rangel has labelled Real Madrid as 'nasty' and 'powerless' following their Champions League exit at the hands of Borussia Dortmund.

Jose Mourinho's men beat the Germans 2-0 at the Santiago Bernabeu on Tuesday night but lost the semi-final 4-3 on aggregate with Spanish right-back Rangel full of praise for Dortmund but not so much Madrid.

"I feel like I have to praise Borussia Dortmund. Madrid were unfortunate as always, nasty, provocative and powerless," he posted on Twitter.

"Congratulations to a great team Borussia Dortmund. As it should be, the team from Germany, are a great example of how to use younger players."
