Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos has denied saying that Cristiano Ronaldo has a licence to take it easy on the field, stressing that Real Madrid play - and run - as a team.

The central defender had been quoted by certain media outlets as asserting that Ronaldo was the only Real player under no obligation to run during matches.

But speaking on Saturday following the club's 4-1 win over Eibar, Ramos insisted there was no truth to those reports.

"It is not true. You have to inform yourselves, look at the evidence and tell the truth. We got together at half-time against Las Palmas, what we talked about did not leave there and I am glad of that," he explained to reporters.
