Real Madrid defender Raphael Varane: Not a bad result

Real Madrid defender Raphael Varane was relieved after their 2-2 draw at Champions League opponents Borussia Dortmund.

Varane netted Real Madrid's second goal in Dortmund and at the final whistle he shared his impressions of the game.

"I think that the draw is the fairest result for both sides. They had more possession, but we hurt them on the counter. We lacked a bit of concentration and energy at the end, but it's not a bad result.

"I was in need of a game like that one. I'm in good shape, as is the team. When you end up dropping points at the end of the game you can never be happy, but we're ok, we must keep on working hard and we'll continue to give our all."
