Courtois has made some excellent stops but it's hardly been a siege on his goal. Liverpool completely failed to stop the obvious counter-attacking threat and were extremely fortunate to not lose a previous goal. 

If they get an equaliser they'll probably go in to win, but for a team that aimed to control the match from the beginning they've clearly failed at that task. 

Yeah, Anceloti has played this perfectly. They are vulnerable on the break, especially down their right. At the same time, they've held firm at the back and denied Liverpool space.

For all the stereotype of Real Madrid being a team of primadonna superstars, their ability to dig in, put their bodies on the line and be able to grind out results when it matters has been very impressive over the past decade in this competition.
