Ronaldo scathing of Real Madrid in defeat at Real Sociedad

Cristiano Ronaldo was scathing of Real Madrid's performance in defeat at Real Sociedad.

Real Madrid blew a 2-0 lead to lose 4-2 in San Sebastian.

"It was a strange game. We were winning and the team was cruising at 2-0 after 15 minutes," said Ronaldo.

"After that, it all changed. It's a lesson for us that you cannot take anything for granted - even when you are leading 2-0. We have to battle right up until the final whistle and we didn't do that. We paid a high price, we conceded four goals and we were incompetent. I hope that we can learn from it."
