Mourinho: Real still favourites

Jose Mourinho has admitted that his Real Madrid side deserved nothing from their Copa del Rey clash at Celta Vigo last night but backed his players to turn around the tie in the second leg at the Bernabeu. Mario Bermejo put Celta ahead 11 minutes after the break with a low, back-post finish and Madrid were in disarray when substitute Christian Bustos scored two minutes after his 76th-minute arrival. But Cristiano Ronaldo\'s strike with four minutes left gave the visitors hope ahead of the return. \"I liked how Celta played and I think that they deserved to win the match,\" said Mourinho. \"The result reflects what happened on the pitch, but perhaps they didn\'t do enough to merit scoring twice and neither did we to merit scoring once. \"They deserved to win the match, but I still think we are favourites to win the tie and I\'d like to think that we will go through. There is no great drama, everything is still to be played for and we know they are a good team. I\'d rather lose here today than to do it in the league because we can do something about this.\"
