Real Madrid midfielder Kroos: Vini Jr always gives you a chanceFlashscore
Vini Jr scored twice as Real drew 2-2 in the first-leg of their Champions League semifinal.

Kroos said: I think it's a fair result for both of teams, the result is good enough for us. We had good moments and moments when we were up against it, which is normal in a Champions League semi-final if you're playing away. If they had scored in the first 15 minutes it would have seemed normal, but then they scored goals when we were in control. Once again we've shown our strength here and now we have to go for the second leg.

Vini Jr. deserves a lot of credit because he's the one who showed for the pass with his movement. He's done well and because I know him, I know he's going into space. That space is opened up by Vini Jr., it was an important run he made.

Players like him always give you the possibility to make passes. He's not only quick, he's also clever and knows how and when to move. He's done well and it's his quality to get into space. It's difficult to stop him there."

On the return leg at the Bernabu, he added: It's going to be a really special game. It's going to be the most important match of the season."
