Real Madrid football chief Miguel Pardeza insists no-one can question the attitude of the players after their draw at Osasuna.
Real were again disappointing for the stalemate.
But Pardeza insists: "If we stood out for anything it was that we never gave up the fight. Our reputation is on the line at every match. When Madrid loses it needs to be considered a disappointment because we always want to win.
"You always miss the great players. Ronaldo scores a lot of goals, but he wasn't here today and so it's not worth talking about. The players that were here tried to do the best they could."
