Real Madrid can't lose like that – Sergio Ramos after 7-3 loss to Atletico

Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos said the La Liga giants cannot lose like they did against Atletico Madrid, who incredibly won 7-3 on Friday.

Real endured a humiliating loss to bitter rivals Atletico at the International Champions Cup in New Jersey, where Diego Costa scored four goals in a merciless pre-season performance.

Atletico led 4-0 after 28 minutes and 5-0 at half-time as Los Blancos were put to the sword, while Zinedine Zidane's side managed to pull three goals back via Nacho Fernandez, Karim Benzema and Javi Hernandez.
