Real Madrid coach Santiago Solari refused to entertain questions about Gareth Bale and his relationship with fans after victory over Valencia.

Bale was forced off in the second-half with a knock.

Solari explained: "He was tired and had a few discomforts, but a lot was demanded from him, he has sacrificed and he has been good."

Asked about the fans' reaction to the Welshman, Solari replied: "But the Bernabéu demands from all of us, but I would like to focus on players like Benzema, Llorente, Lucas Vázquez, Courtois, the wings, the central players ... it's been a very complete game of all and I'm very happy with everyone."
