Ronaldo has had another successful outing in the European tournament, leading the goal scoring chart with 15 goals to his name. He became the first player to score in 10 straight matches in the competition, taking the Los Blancos to another final in 3 consecutive years.
The Portuguese has the ability to take on defenses all by himself and single-handedly decide the fate of important games like this.
His fantastic pace, ability to penetrate into the box and his clinical efforts in front of goal will really threaten The Reds on Saturday. In fact Liverpool will need the efforts of 11 men to stop the incredible winger.
