The first leg of the Champions League Round of 16 saw Insigne open the scoring with a stunner after eight minutes, but Karim Benzema, Casemiro and Toni Kroos completed the comeback.

“I think we did a great deal, because as we all know Real Madrid are the champions of Europe and the world, top of La Liga,” Insigne told Mediaset Premium.
