Real Madrid forward Gareth Bale has insisted he has not changed his playing style despite receiving criticism from some Madrid supporters after not passing to Cristiano Ronaldo in a Liga game last month.

The Welshman was jeered during the Santiago Bernabeu side's 3-0 win over Espanyol when he went for goal himself rather than pass to his Portuguese team-mate.

Having received backing from Ronaldo and head coach Carlo Ancelotti, Bale has made it clear he has not altered anything in the wake of his side's 2-0 Champions League win over Schalke at the Veltins Arena on Wednesday.

"I haven't really adapted my style of play," the former Tottenham star told Sky Sports . "In certain games, if a sight of goal has opened up I'll take it. But [against Schalke] I think my team-mates were in better positions and I tried to play the ball around."

Ronaldo was on target in Madrid's 2-0 win, with Marcelo adding the second to give the defending European champions a commanding
lead in the last-16 tie.

It forms part of a strong recovery following the club's 4-0 derby defeat to Atletico Madrid earlier this month and Bale was delighted with their response.
