Real Madrid Don’t Depend On Cristiano Ronaldo Only – Raul Albiol

Raul Albiol has spoken in defense of Real Madrid’s entire team against the public’s thoughts that Cristiano Ronaldo is indispensable for the Spanish giants.

The former Valencia defender first recognized the star winger’s potential by telling AS:

“Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the best in the world, but we are a team.”

Raul Albiol then pursued his explanation:

“We possess many players. Despite being hit by injuries and suspensions, we’ve proven that we will maintain our quality no matter who we affront.

“The team [Real Madrid] has the capacity of winning with or without Cristiano Ronaldo.”

The Spanish giants indeed defied all the odds by breaking their 19-season-curse at the Riazor stadium against Deportivo La Coruna last weekend; and they played without the presence of the suspended Ronaldo.

Cristiano Ronaldo will again be missing from Real Madrid’s squad this weekend. The Portuguese winger is completing his two match-ban sentence for breaking the nose of Malaga’s Mtiliga two weeks ago.
