Real Madrid forward Cristiano Ronaldo has suggested that his side will still win the La Liga title despite their 4-0 defeat at the hands of champions Atletico Madrid.
Carlo Ancelotti's men endured a torrid time at the Vicente Calderon Stadium, as they had no reply to goals from Tiago Mendes, Saul, Antoine Griezmann and Mario Mandzukic.
"Real Madrid are better than Atlético but we have to prove it on the field," Ronaldo told reporters, according to The Guardian.
"Anyway, I think we will win the title at the end of the season. Nothing worked today. It is a day to forget. Real Madrid can never lose 4-0 against any team.
"The team is fine, but today we made a big mistake. These were three points that we lost. No more. Not four points.
"We lacked enthusiasm and we were not mentally or physically fresh. There was little recovery time from Wednesday's game [against Sevilla]."
Madrid still occupy top spot in the league standings on 54 points from 22 games.
