Madrid didn't face too many problems as they reached the semi-finals of the Champions League
Real Madrid ground out a 0-0 draw with Liverpool to progress to the Champions League semi-finals 3-1 on aggregate.
Nacho and Eder Militao were superb in defence to keep Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino at bay.
Fede Valverde was also impressive as a makeshift right back with Dani Carvajal and Lucas Vazquez out injured.
Perhaps the one key player on the night, as he has been for a lot of the season, was goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois.
The stopper has never lost at Anfield and he made sure of it again with great saves to deny Salah and James Milner early on.
Karim Benzema hit the post with Madrid’s best chance, until Vinicius Junior spurned a one on one in the second.
Liverpool didn’t cause Madrid too many problems as Zidane’s side played a serious second half to set up a semi-final date with Chelsea.
