Real Madrid forward, Cristiano Ronaldo has
revealed who caused their loss against
Tottenham in the Champions League on
Wednesday.
Ronaldo who said he was not worried
about his lack of goals this season, blamed
referee Cüneyt Çakır for allowing
Tottenham’s second goal which he said
was offside.
Ronaldo said he is convinced Real Madrid
will soon turn things around.
Ronaldo had five shots on goal against
Tottenham in their Champions League
game on Wednesday but scored once in
Real Madrid’s 3-1 loss at Wembley.
The Portugal captain who was voted the
Best FIFA Men’s Player for a second year
running last month, has scored just once in
his last three games and has failed to score
more than one goal in a match since Sept.
26.
He told Cadena Cope, “I think the result
didn’t show what we did on the pitch.
Tottenham’s first goal was offside and at
Girona their second goal was also offside.
“These are things that we cannot control
but what we can is our attitude and our
fighting spirit and that wasn’t lacking in
either game.
“I’m super calm about my goals. It
seems you are not interested in good
performances but rather about goals and
only numbers count. But if you Google
‘Cristiano goals,’ you see all of mine
there.
“The important thing is the end result
and not the beginning. The fans have to be
patient and confident. We admit that we
are not playing as we should. But I don’t
see the team so badly; we have to be calm
and confident. We know we are in a bad
spell but things change.
“Of course it’s bad because we lost and
we are accustomed to winning. It’s a bad
spell and we want to change and I’m
certain that we will. We still have a lot of
time to improve and I’m convinced we
will.
