got the response he wanted from his players and Cristiano Ronaldo is
celebrating his goals again after Real Madrid's rousing fightback to snatch a
3-2 Champions League win at home to Manchester
City on Tuesday. Needing
a convincing performance in Europe after a dreadful start in La Liga, Real
twice came from a goal down in the Group D opener at the Bernabeu before
Ronaldo wear cheap nike soccer cleats struck a 90th-minute winner
to send the home fans into raptures and silence the boisterous City supporters
high up in the giant arena. The fight the Real players showed to turn the game
around was in stark contrast to the limp displays that led to shock domestic
defeats at Getafe
and Sevilla wear cheap adidas soccer cleats. The victory against the
English champions has transformed a club on the verge of crisis into a team
full of belief they can secure the 10th European title that has eluded them
since 2002 wear nike mercurial vapor 9. Mourinho
launched a series of stinging attack on his players after the La Liga setbacks
but after wildly celebrating Ronaldo's goal the Portuguese told reporters Real
could scarcely have played better. "In Seville (on Saturday) we had players who did
not win a ball in 90 minutes," he said. "Today was the opposite. The
team was solid, compact, recovered balls and were committed to play
aggressively wear nike mercurial vapor superfly iii. "Real Madrid wants that
historic tenth title and we will fight for it." Concern in the Spanish
capital about Real's early-season wobble was exacerbated by Ronaldo's
revelation at the start of this month that he was "sad" for
professional reasons. The Portugal forward's bombshell prompted speculation he
was seeking an improved contract and could even leave the club that made him
the world's most expensive player wear nike mercurial vapor 8 when they bought him from
Manchester United for 94 million euros ($122.72 million)three years ago. Ronaldo's
comments about his state of mind came after he refused to celebrate the two
goals he netted in a 3-0 win at home to Granada.
Tuesday's winner, his 39th Champions League strike and his 151st goal in 151
appearances for Real wear adidas f50 adizero trx, prompted a typically
flamboyant reaction and he was mobbed by jubilant team mates. He was asked
whether it had been important for him to connect with the Real fans again.
"To be honest, I haven't thought about that at any time," he told
reporters. "What happened in the past doesn't matter. What matters is the
present and the present is good wear adidas adipure 11pro. People are happy and pleased."
Asked how he was feeling, he replied : "That doesn't matter." Real's
next game is at city rivals Rayo Vallecano on Sunday, when they can begin the
process of trying to close the eight-point gap to arch leaders Barcelona, who
have won all four of their La Liga matches wear adidas predator lz. Tuesday's morale-boosting victory was
the quick-fix they needed but there was a lingering sense on Wednesday that the
club still has problems to deal with. Mourinho left experienced Spain centre
back Sergio Ramos, one of the club captains, on the bench on Tuesday, replacing
him with French 19-year-old Raphael Varane wear nike total 90 laser iv. Local media suggested all
was not well between Ramos and his coach but Mourinho denied there was any
rift. "Ramos did not play because the coach thought it better that he did
not play," Mourinho said. "We're talking about a player in the
starting eleven, a great, but I want to make clear that I have no problems with
him whatsoever," he wear nike tiempo legend iv elite added. "It's a purely
football decision. I thought that Varane and Pepe were in better shape to play
together today." Ramos used his Twitter account to congratulate the team
but did not address his omission from the team wear nike ctr360 maestri ii elite.
