The Portuguese winger stirred controversy after he opted against celebrating his 89th-minute strike to cap his team's resounding win at the Bernabeu, but the 25-year-old reassured supporters both the player and the club remain on good terms. "Cristiano is fine, we're happy with him," claimed Ramos. Ramos then proceeded to reflect on his side's prolific performance in the Spanish capital, and he was adamant the best team prevailed, but praised the hosts for forcing Madrid to step their game up in the second half. "Maybe they are a very good team, as they made life complicated for us, but in the second half we did better and had more chances," said Ramos. "We were worthy of the victory, we had the ball almost all the time, but [in hindsight] I prefer our second half display." Real Madrid have provisionally moved six points clear of Barcelona at the Primera Division summit, following the win, while Granada remain in 14th place.
