Portuguese striker Cristiano Ronaldo seems to have had enough of small talk.
Speaking to Real Madrid TV, the team's all-time top striker didn't hold back and discussed Los Blancos' chances of success, as he believes his team-mates will overpower Juventus on Saturday, as they are "better" than their opponents.
"Being too humble isn't good. We have to show the world who's better. I know that we're better than them, all we have to do is demonstrate that on the pitch. I have a feeling we will have a great match on Saturday which will give us the win," Cristiano stated.
The Portuguese player needs one goal to secure one more UCL goal scoring title, which he would share with Lionel Messi.
CR7 admitted having goose bumps over Saturday's clash, which could make it more difficult to perform correctly. Nevertheless, Ronaldo believes that winning the title in the Spanish top flight will be the boost they needed to beat La Vecchia Signora.
"I'd rather not think about the final right now. Winning La Liga gave us the calm we needed, and now, we have a chance to make history in this tournament. We're currently on a roll and we'll try to take advantage," the player added.
The former Manchester United player scored the game-winning penalty against Atlético last year to secure an 11th UCL title for Los Blancos. Will he do the same this year? Find out on Saturday!
