Dortmund (Germany): Zinedine Zidane admitted he was frustrated at Real Madrid's third straight draw after Andre Schuerrle's late equalliser ensured a 2-2 stalemate at Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League on Tuesday.


The defending European champions were heading towards a first win in Dortmund at the sixth attempt thanks to goals by Cristiano Ronaldo and Raphael Varane. But Schuerrle struck with three minutes left as Dortmund came back for a second time after Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was credited with the goal, which cancelled out Ronaldo's early effort.


"The shame is it is three games in a row now which we have drawn," said Zidane. "The players played a great match, the result is a difficult one to accept, because we deserved a bit more, but it's not a bad result. I think in the first half we suffered a bit, because they pressed a lot and we knew it is a difficult place to come and play against a good team.

"I am frustrated. We played a good game in attack and defense and it was a great effort from everyone. We played the game we wanted. At the end, the same (draw) again, it's the third match. I'm frustrated for the players because it's undeserved."
