Real Madrid striker Ronaldo has played down his touchline antics last week.

The Brazilian was clearly upset at being substituted during Real's victory over Real Mallorca, but insisted there is no problem between himself and coach Vanderlei Luxemburgo.

"I don't know any player who is happy when he leaves the field early," said Ronaldo. "I was angry with myself and I was upset."

"I always want to play to help the team. But the annoyance was in the corridor. If there was a camera, bad luck, but I did not make any gesture on the field to disrespect my teammates or the public."

The Brazilian also said: "Vanderlei does what is right for the team. I do not believe that he used me as an example."

"I accept what the trainer says and I do not ask for explanations."
