Lopetegui insists Real not missing ex-striker Ronaldo

Real Madrid coach Julen Lopetegui insisted after a come from behind 4-1 win at Girona that a ‘keep calm under pressure’ attitude would deliver the goals previously scored by the prolific but now departed Cristiano Ronaldo.

Seeking their second win of the new La Liga season the European champions fell behind before a brace from Karim Benzema and further goals from Sergio Ramos and Welsh star Gareth Bale saw Madrid eventually cruise to three precious points. “This time it was Gareth, Karim and Sergio, but we don’t mind who gets them as long as we get them,” Lopetegui said in response to whether Real were missing Ronaldo.
