Madrid, 22 Oct (EFE).- Real Madrid forward Cristiano Ronaldo stated Tuesday that nobody should pressure Welshman Gareth Bale, whom he praised on the eve of their Champions League tie against Juventus, adding that people should focus on other players when they demand accountability.



"I think he is doing well. Since his arrival, he has had a difficult time because he didn't do preseason and he's injured now. It's not easy for him but when you speak with him, you can see he is very excited to play and help the team and getting better and better", the Portuguese said at a press conference at the club's training complex in Valdebebas.
