Captain Iker Casillas said Real Madrid was given a Champions League wake-up call as it lost 2-0 to last season's beaten finalist Borussia Dortmund in its quarterfinal second-leg match but still went through to the last four 3-2 on aggregate on Tuesday.
Germany winger Marco Reus scored Borussia's goals to spark hopes of the host reaching the semifinals.
However, Real held on but patently missed its star performer Cristiano Ronaldo, who was on the bench because he had not recovered fully from the knock to the knee he took in the first leg.
