Ronaldo at 70% enough for Real - Salgado

Sunday, May 29 2016 by SNTV
  • Former Real Madrid defender Michel Salgado said on Saturday (28th May) that if Cristiano Ronaldo "can give Real Madrid 70 per cent that would be enough" in the UEFA Champions League final.

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Michel Salgado, former Real Madrid defender (Q: Zinedine Zidane says Cristiano Ronaldo is 100 per cent, but are you worried?):

    "Well it's always a concern if you don't have Cristiano Ronaldo fit. But to be honest just being in the final, if he can give to Real Madrid 70 per cent, it would be enough. He's a special player, one of the best players in the world. He is able to win games as I said and to be honest maybe he is not at 100 per cent, he picked up an injury in the semi-finals as well, he picked up an injury now three days before the game (final), but if he is going to be on the pitch it's because obviously he is fit enough to play."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Michel Salgado, former Real Madrid defender (Q: How do you see this match going?):

    "Well it is going to be really tough for Real Madrid, it's not the kind of team that suits us. We know Atletico Madrid beat us this year in the league, but I hope it's going to be like in 2014 when they beat us in the league and then we beat them in the Champions League final. You never know how the final is going to be, obviously in the first ten or fifteen minutes what's going to happen there, but to be honest the two teams know each other very well and we are expecting a big fight with Atletico Madrid. They know how to annoy us, it's a very difficult team. I think they are even better than in 2014. They have more alternatives up front. They've got more control in midfield."
