    By Iain Rogers MADRID (Reuters) - Real Madrid and Jose Mourinho were sifting through the debris of what the Portuguese coach termed a "disastrous" 2012-13 campaign after Friday's King's Cup final defeat left the world's richest club without a major trophy for the season.

Juventus striker Mirko Vucinic has hailed the spirit of the Serie A leaders after their recent performances.

The Bianconeri followed their 4-1 demolition of Roma with a hard-fought 1-1 draw against Shakhtar Donetsk in the Champions League, before their 2-1 win over Siena last weekend.

And the 29-year-old took to his personal website to releasea statement in which he spoke in glowing terms of the character shown by his side on the back of a difficult seven days.

He said: "Roma, Shakhtar and Siena. One week, three games, three different approaches. With Roma we produced a perfect performance, playing a high-level match.

"In our Champions League home debut [this season] we never gave up even after the goal we conceded. And on Sunday at Siena we fought until the end for a crucial victory.

"A great team must know how to suffer, fight and win in order to stand tall and show always a great character! Now with the national games I go back to Montenegro. See you on the 20th for the super match - Juventus v Napoli!"
