Real Madrid winger Robinho welcomed the support he received from the Santiago Bernabeu crowd during last night's 1-1 draw with Getafe.
Robinho won Real's penalty, which was converted by Ruud van Nistelrooy, and said afterwards: "I always try to do the things that coach (Fabio) Capello asks of me."
"I played well and the team did also. I believe the fans want me to stay and are supporting me. It was very difficult to score and we lacked a little luck also. Jose Reyes had a good shout for a penalty and we should've finished with three points."
"Now the two most important games for us are coming (against Bayern Munich and Barcelona) and for our future, we hope to be able to play as well as tonight."
Scorer Van Nistelrooy added: "I believe that in the first-half we did not play well. At the outset we gave too much space to Getafe and they could play very easy soccer."
"In the second-half we were far better, we did well, we pressed more and we had more opportunities at goal. We had a good call for a penalty. But we know that for referees it is not easy to guess right all the time."
