Real Madrid defender pays the price for having a sneaky cigarette.

“It was my birthday and it was an occasional thing,” Coentrao told Record. “I am very disappointed with what has been written in the press because no one can say anything bad about me.
“I am an excellent professional, I have always given everything for the clubs I have represented and it is not fair to put everything in doubt because of one isolated act.”
