Real Madrid coach Rafael Benitez has hit out at
"invented" scandals, alluding to a reported dispute between star
forwards Cristiano Ronaldo and
Gareth Bale.
"There are scandals that are
invented, all the time. I'm surprised by the quantity of things that come out
of Real Madrid that aren't true," fumed Benitez at the pre-match press
conference ahead of Saturday's Bernabeu clash with Levante.
“The
atmosphere in the camp is very good, the players get on well.”

"There are people who think
this is the type of fashionable journalism at the moment and that they have to
keep doing it to sell (papers). There's a lot of media, web pages, blogs,
newspapers, radio... They have to keep blowing up scandals because it's easier
to sell that way.
"There are people, I don't
know why, who have no interest in things going well for Real Madrid, and who
want to destabilise us a little bit."
Benitez denied rumours of a rift
between Ronaldo and Bale, saying: "The atmosphere in the camp is very
good, the players get on well."
Unbeaten Real currently sit
second in La Liga, a point behind surprise early pace-setters Villarreal and
above Celta Vigo and Barcelona on goal difference. Next week, Real play a
crunch UEFA Champions League tie against their main group rivals Paris
Saint-Germain.
