MADRID - A pair of stunning second-half saves from Hugo Lloris salvaged a precious point for Tottenham Hotspur as it held European champion Real Madrid to a 1-1 draw at Santiago Bernabeu on Tuesday.
Both sides remain unbeaten in this season's Champions League and well placed to progress to the last 16. They each have seven points after Cristiano Ronaldo's penalty canceled out Raphael Varane's own goal in the first half.
"Hugo was fantastic, he deserves a big prize. He showed his real level," said Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino.
