MADRID - Cristiano Ronaldo warned Real Madrid will be punished if they don't improve on their performance in an edgy 2-1 win over Sporting Lisbon to start their Champions League defence. "At the moment I am happy at Real Madrid and as I have said I want to finish my career here because it is the club that is in my heart right now." "We are Real Madrid so every game is going to be difficult because teams want to come here and cause us problems," said the Frenchman. "Real Madrid players were talking to the referee and nothing happened to them so I thought it was ok if I did the same thing," said a disgruntled Jesus. And Jesus hailed Ronaldo as the best player in the world after inspiring a late reaction from the 11-time European champions.
