Stephan Lichtsteiner said Real Madrid clearly “are not accustomed to playing such an organised side” as Juventus.

The Bianconeri won the first leg of the Champions League semi-final 2-1 in Turin.

“I thought we had a great game, especially when defending. It’s always tough against Real Madrid, but I don’t think they are accustomed to playing against such an organised side as us,” the right-back told Sky Sport Italia.

“It was very tough down that flank against Ronaldo, Isco and Marcelo, so we can only be happy to have won 2-1!

“They created very little and we can be happy with both the performance and the result.

“We knew they were very important players who can always make the difference if you get distracted. We saw some extraordinary videos of the great things these players have done.

“We managed to neutralise them and now we have to prepare for the second leg at the Bernabeu.”
