Carlo Ancelotti's side also came close to a Champions League exit at the hands of Schalke when they suffered a 4-3 second-leg defeat at the Santiago Bernabeu. That is despite an incredible 22-game winning streak before Christmas that took them to the top of the Spanish league and through the Champions League group stages with a 100 per cent record. Kroos told Sport1: 'Those who know me a bit better know I'm not like a flag that moves with the wind, as they sometimes do in the Spanish media. 'When you win a game, everything is good, and when you lose, everything is negative.'
