The Brazilian left-back has since taken blame for the goal, and said: "I take the blame for the last goal but it can happen to anyone."
Madrid's boss Zinedine Zidane was also left frustrated that his side - who had Sergio Ramos sent off, should have been more clever when defending.

Before adding after the full-time whistle: "This is the home of the champions… Off to rest, to the Copa del Rey."
