Gianluigi Buffon pleased with first-leg advantage

Buffon pleased with first-leg advantage

Juventus goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon believes that a 2-1 win over Real Madrid in the first leg of their Champions League semi-final is "a very good result".

The Italian side will enter next week's second leg with a slender advantage, but an away goal for Real Madrid has kept the tie wide open.

"In the cold light of day I would say that 2-1 is a very good result for us," Buffon told UEFA.com.

Alvaro Morata opened the scoring for Juventus, before Cristiano Ronaldo levelled after 27 minutes. The game's decisive goal came just before the hour when Carlos Tevez netted from the penalty spot.
