Marcelo: Cristiano Ronaldo is always decisive when he has to be
Brazilian praised his colleague
Posted Sunday, October 15, 2017 by Marca.com
Despite enduring a tough 90 minutes at Getafe, Real Madrid emerged victorious thanks to Cristiano Ronaldo's winner, and colleague Marcelo noted that the Portuguese always shows up for the big moments.
The victory also meant that Los Blancos set a new LaLiga record of 13 consecutive away wins.
"We know what he [Ronaldo] can give Madrid," the Brazilian said to reporters after the game.
"He might not score in two games ... but he's always decisive when he has to be."
Just like against Barcelona, the hosts made life difficult but succumbed late in the day.
"It's a difficult ground and players are always more motivated against us," he continued.
"But we played well and what matters is that we have done a great job."
Getafe had deliberately left the grass longer than normal which may have hampered Real's passing game.
"It doesn't matter," Marcelo said.
"Everyone has to adapt."
