Club Atletico de Madrid v Real Madrid CF - La Liga
Ronaldo could miss the final

The Champions League all-time top scorer, Cristiano Ronaldo is also the leading goal scorer in the '17/18 edition of the tournament with 15 goals. The Portuguese superstar has won four European titles and is gunning for his fifth Champions League medal.

Ronaldo injured his ankle in the process of scoring Real Madrid's first goal in the 2-2 draw against Barcelona in the El Clasico. He was substituted at halftime by Zidane in order to protect the prolific goalscorer.

Ronaldo is vital to Real Madrid and faces a stiff test to be fully fit for the final against Liverpool. With Madrid gunning for their third consecutive title, the club will create history and become the only team in modern history to the competition three times in succession. Ronaldo will be eager to play the final and it remains a possibility he could miss the game in Kiev.
