Christiano Ronaldo Wished They Were Facing Man United in Final
Cristiano Ronaldo is preparing to lead Real Madrid in a Champions League final clash with Liverpool but would have preferred to be facing Manchester United.
The Portuguese superstar has helped to fire the Blancos near a third successive European crown, with Zinedine Zidane’s side having dominated continental competition in recent years.
Ronaldo has remained a talismanic presence throughout a period of unprecedented success in the modern era, with the 33-year-old once again leading the scoring charts this term with 15 efforts.
He will be hoping to add to that tally against Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool side, but had been hoping to line up against his former employers at Old Trafford after reaching another showpiece event.
Ronaldo told reporters at Madrid’s open media day: “Finals are always special occasions: I would have preferred it to be Manchester United.
“But Liverpool deserve respect. We’re not going to have it easy. They deserve to be in the final."
