The Portuguese superstar has seen his attitude praised despite reportedly throwing a foul-mouthed strop after being taken off against Athletic Bilbao
Nacho Fernandez insists it is perfectly normal for Real Madrid team-mate Cristiano Ronaldo to get angry when he is substituted.
The Portugal star was visibly irked when he was taken off in the second half of Madrid's 2-1 La Liga victory at Athletic Bilbao on Saturday.
It was suggested in the Spanish media that Ronaldo said to head coach Zinedine Zidane "why f****** me?" as he walked off, although the head coach later denied that the 32-year-old forward was particularly upset.
