Real Madrid defender Pepe insists Cristiano Ronaldo has the support of the locker room.

Real won at Levante just days after Ronaldo had publicly blasted his teammates. "They're in the past now," Pepe said of his comments.

"We've spoken about it and we're all pulling in the same direction, just like the coach said. We've got to put a shift in out on the field.

"We need to fight for all of the Real Madrid fans all over the world who hurt when we lose."
