Ronaldo and Robinho's differing experiences at Madrid
Ronaldo is reported to be furious with Real Madrid coach Fabio Capello having not come on Saturday.
Despite being told to warm up in the second-half, Ronaldo was left on the bench by Capello.
The Brazilian wasn't informed until the 85th minute that he wouldn't be entering the field on the night. On the way home, Ronaldo sat on his own, brooding, despite attempts from teammates to lift his spirits.
A source told AS: "Ronie's spirit has sunk. It is incomprehensible that Capello says in near circles that he's very satisfied with his work and then does this to him.
"He asked for work and seriousness from him and Ronie has fulfilled that."
Meanwhile Robinho has been one of the big success stories at Real Madrid this season.
The Brazilian has starred in the three wins against Steaua Bucharest, Barcelona and Nastic, while was started on the bench in the Copa del Rey draw at little Ecija last week.
Before the defeat against Getafe, Robinho was on the outer, but now says: "I hope that the team continues as we are, like in the last couple of games.
"Personally I am very happy, I hope to continue playing as I am. Now I am very happy with my football."
This is in stark contrast to the start of the season, when Robinho said: "I believe it is going to be very difficult for me to play for (Fabio) Capello."
Real teammate Roberto Carlos said last night: "We're now seeing the Robinho of Santos. The same thing happened to Ronaldinho. His first year in Europe was disastrous."
