Real Madrid should improve their set-pieces defending, coach Manuel Pellegrini said after his side lost 2-1 to Juventus in Friday's Peace Cup game.

Two goals from Fabio Cannavaro and Hasan Salihamidzic either side of Cristiano Ronaldo's equalizer helped Juventus reach the friendly tournament's final.

Both strikes came from Alessandro Del Piero's exquisite set-pieces.

"We have conceded five goals from set pieces in this competition (3 games) and we can allow ourselves to give away two a game," Chilean manager Pellegrini told a news conference.

"We are getting better as each game goes by, but we haven't worked much on dead-ball situations yet."

The Spanish giants will open their Primera Liga campaign against Deportivo La Coruna on August 30th.
