Glum Ronaldo insists it's not about the money

Cristiano Ronaldo insisted on Tuesday his complaint about being glum at Real Madrid is not a ploy to get more money out of the club.

The 27-year-old forward (pictured) sparked a global media storm when he confessed to being "sad" at Real Madrid, explaining why he did not celebrate either goal after snatching a brace in Madrid's 3-0 win over Granada on Sunday.

Many papers accused him of trying to leverage more money out of Real Madrid.
