I have accidentally spill some orange juice on my keyboard. Now the ctrl key and the space bar are sticky.
Is it possible to remove the key to clean underneath?
I have found this video about a macbook pro:
YouTube - How To Clean/Fix MacBook Aluminium (Pro,Air) Keyboard
It look similar but I am not sure.
Does anyone have already done that?
Can you explain me how to proceed?
Thank you

They keyboard is extremely thin and weak once you remove it, I think it maybe very hard to remove keys without damaging it.
I might be wrong but your best bet might be buying a new keyboard . -
You can open the keyboard's backside and clean it that way.

I removed the space bar just fine on mine when I was ridding it of the squeeks.

yes it's possible but I highly recommend removing it first. Be gentle though as the plastic between the keys is almost impossible to reattach without careful use of glue if it comes off.
Follow the same rules you would with any other keyboard, if it feels like you're applying too much force you probably are and there's probably a better way to do it.
(I'm 99.99% sure my G51J has the exact same keyboard as the G73) -
yeah i did that to my "C" button since it was not very responsive, i pulled it out and put a small piece of paper underneath, and now it's reponsive as hell
.
Be gentle is the key. -
Here is a guide from Ken Lee on how to remove the back plate of the keyboard on G73/G51/G53.
The guide talks about changing the color of the backlight, and contains info on how to remove the back plate of the keyboard:

I thing using this method you can clean the keys which are sticky.
