Rodrygo: Real Madrid should've beaten Shakhtar by more

Rodrygo Goes was happy to score for Real Madrid in victory over Champions League opponents Shakhtar Donetsk.

Real won 2-1 on Wednesday night.

Rodrygo said: "Every Champions League match is very special, I treat them as an opportunity to score or give a goal assist to help my team. If you play for Madrid every single Champions night is special - more so if you can be awarded a lovely trophy like I've just been given.

"I think it's just a minor mishap that the scoreline wasn't much bigger.

"We created lots of goal chances and so I think it's accidental that we didn't score many more of them than just two. Let's hope next match we put more of them away."
