MANCHESTER, ENGLAND - Real Madrid defender Raphael Varane took full responsibility for his side's 2-1 defeat at Manchester City on Friday after making two catastrophic errors which saw the Spanish side knocked out of the Champions League 4-2 on aggregate.

The 27-year-old Varane, a four-time Champions League winner with Madrid and a world champion with France, was missing his usual defensive partner Sergio Ramos who was suspended and the Frenchman lost his concentration in two crucial moments. "I can't explain the errors but I have to accept them. This is a complicated moment for me," added Varane, who has made over 300 appearances for Real since joining from Lens in 2011.
