Mourinho blasts Real Madrid players (except Ronaldo) after Espanyol draw

Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho slammed his players - except Cristiano Ronaldo - after their draw with Espanyol.

A late goal from substitute Juan Albin gave Espanyol a share of the points and Barcelona are now 13 points clear of them in La Liga after beating second-placed Atletico Madrid 4-1 thanks to yet another double from Lionel Messi.

"Cristiano (Ronaldo) played well but his team-mates didn't. The attitude has been good and what we need is a bit of calm and luck. For the effort of the players we deserved to win but we wasted clear cut chances," said Mourinho.
