Juventus captain, Giorgio
Chiellini has said that fellow teammate, Cristiano Ronaldo broke his “dreams
many times – in Cardiff, Madrid and Turin”.
Ronaldo led Real Madrid
during his time at the Santiago Bernabeu to defeat Juventus on several
occasions in the Champions League encounter.
The 33-year-old scored
twice for Real Madrid against Juventus in the Champions League final in 2017.
He also scored three goals
in two games against Max Allegri’s side last season. Chiellini admitted that
the Portuguese captain had left him heartbroken over the years.
“Cristiano scored many,
many, many times against us and he broke my dreams many times – in Cardiff, in
Madrid, in Turin,”Chiellini was quoted by Express UK as saying.
“Before, the Champions
League was a dream.
“Now it is a target because
Cristiano is the best player in the world and we need him to make the last
step.
“It’s the personality of
Cristiano.
“He has fantastic skills in
the field but out of the field, his attitude – how he works, how he prepares
for the match, how he lives every day of his life – can help us. The team has
changed.”
