"When you play in Europe, it's different to the Premier League. It often happens that the game runs slower. Sometimes it's like a charity game! Look at the Chelsea players and you will see how slow they were.

For me, that's what European football is all about - the way Real Madrid changed the tempo of the game. Everyone seems to calm down, taking their positions, and then Rodrigo scores a goal. Bang! Everything is happening so fast,” CBS Sports quoted Carragher as saying.
