Rafa Benitez is not scared to take Cristiano Ronaldo off

Real Madrid boss Rafa Benitez praised Cristiano Ronaldo and defined him as "unquestionable", but says he wouldn't be afriad to substitue him during a match. 

"I wouldn't tremble with fear," Benitez said when asked by 'El Partido de las 12' on Cadena Cope if he would consider taking the Ballon d'Or owner off. 

"Cristiano Ronaldo is unquestionable. The advantage that he has over other footballers is that he scores 50 or more goals every season. with him on the pitch, it's a guarantee that there could be a goal, so that's why I try to keep him on.

"I talk with him every day, because I speak with all my players every day. We've already spoken and analysed what we have to do to get the best performance out of Cristiano, what would be the best for Madrid. For that reason, there's no debate about Cristiano."
