Navas concedes Real Madrid are missing Ronaldo

Real Madrid goalkeeper Keylor Navas conceded the La Liga giants are missing Cristiano Ronaldo after their goalless run continued in the Champions League.

Madrid suffered a shock 1-0 defeat to CSKA Moscow in the Champions League, extending their winless and goalless run to three games.




Ronaldo left Madrid for Juventus in July, having scored at an outstanding rate at the club, including 44 times last campaign.

While Navas is keen to move on from the Portugal international, he said Real had a big hole to fill after Ronaldo’s departure.

“Cristiano left the bar very high at Real Madrid,” he said. “You cannot cover the sun with a finger.

“He made many goals while he was here, but it’s already the past and we cannot live in the past.”

Nikola Vlasic’s second-minute goal was enough for CSKA to claim a win, and they now have four points and top of Group G.




It marked the first time since 2007 that Madrid have failed to score in three successive matches, while they hit the woodwork three times in Russia.

Navas said: “We are sad because they had one chance and took it.

“We made some stellar chances, but could not get it in. In every game you want to score goals and we had some chances to do so. We were unlucky.

“We want to start scoring again in the coming games.”




Madrid have a chance to return to winning ways this weekend when they visit Deportivo Alaves on Saturday.
