Ronaldo: Please Not Bayern
Cristiano Ronaldo doesn't want to meet Bayern Munich in the European Champions League - after they gave his old club Sporting Lisbon a 12-1 hammering!
"Bayern Munich are very strong. I watched them play against my old team, Sporting Lisbon, and I was very sad because I didn’t expect Sporting to lose so heavily [12-1 on aggregate]. But this can happen in football. Bayern are very good – they have mature players, strong players, quick players... Franck Ribery and Miroslav Klose are very impressive. Bayern play like a team and they look very difficult to beat."
"We’re positive about all the competitions we're involved in and we want to win them all. It would be great to achieve that. Last season we won the league and the European Cup, and this year we have the opportunity to do even better. We’ll continue working hard and we believe we can do this."
The draw takes place at 11 GMT on Friday 20th March
