Real Madrid forward Cristiano Ronaldo has played down criticism of the La Liga giants after they succumbed to a 3-1 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur at Wembley Stadium.
Two goals from Dele Alli and a third from Christian Eriksen proved to be the difference in North London as Real continued their poor start to the campaign.
However, Ronaldo has insisted that Spurs did not deserve their victory, with Alli's first goal coming after Kieran Tripper had crossed the ball from an offside position.
The 32-year-old told Football Espana: "Criticism? When you don't win, people try to look for things, but I'm here talking, showing my face for my teammates, and I'm confident that things will change.
"Irritated on the pitch? It's normal. When you're losing, things don't go the way you want them to and you want to help your teammates.
"It was a very big blow to go 3-0 down, although for me it wasn't a good reflection of what happened on the pitch. Their first goal was offside, just like the other day. Our attitude is to run and fight, like it was at Girona."
After the match, Ronaldo claimed that he had no interest in renewing his contract at the Bernabeu.
