Real Madrid centre-back Raphael Varane has branded Tuesday's 2-2 draw with Borussia Dortmund "a fair result for both sides".
Varane sent Los Blancos 2-1 ahead in the 68th minute of the Group F clash, but Dortmund equalised for the second time on the night in the 87th minute when Andre Schurrle fired home from inside the box.
The French defender has admitted that his side "lacked a bit of focus and energy" in the final stages of the match, but has called the draw "not a bad result".
"I think a draw is a fair result for both sides," Varane told UEFA.com. "They had possession and we hurt them on the counter. We lacked a bit of focus and energy at the end, but it's not a bad result.
"I needed a game like that. I'm fine and the side is too. To lose two points at the end of the game never makes you happy, but we're alright. We'll carry on working and we will keep on giving the best of ourselves.
"Their first goal is a bit of bad luck because the ball hits me in the face. That's football, these things happen and it's not a mistake from Keylor Navas. It doesn't matter, and you carry on playing."
Both Real Madrid and Dortmund have now collected four points from their two Group F matches this season.
