Ronaldo confident ahead of Lyon
Cristiano Ronaldo is convinced that Real Madrid will make it through to the next round of the Champions League, where they could face Manchester United!
"Wednesday's match is do-or-die. We are playing very good football and we have proven that we are the strongest team in La Liga. We are familiar with Lyon. They are a strong team physically speaking, but it's our turn to play at home."
"I am convinced that this team will respond and that we will make it through to the next round. I was amazed by the fans on Saturday and I must thank them for their support. I hope we see the same kind of atmosphere on Wednesday because they will play a crucial role in our success. The stadium will be great to see so full and the players are ready."
"We need to go out there to win and must begin the match thinking that we are going to score. Lyon didn't concede any goals against us, but I hope Wednesday is a different story. We know it's hard, but it is possible. We will do everything we can from the very first to very last minute."
"Everyone knows how bad this club wants to win the Champions League. It has nine titles and wants ten, and this year the final is being played here. I am sure we can turn this tie around. We play at home in front of our fans."
"I hope our fans are just as supportive on Wednesday. We will do our very best to win. We have to prove to Lyon that we own the Bernabeu."
