Real Madrid and Shakhtar Donetsk will meet in the Spanish capital on Wednesday when Group B of the Champions League kicks off. Luís Castro, the Portuguese coach who guides the Ukrainian team, expects anything but ease against the merengue team … even if Cristiano Ronaldo is no longer on the other side.

«Is Real Madrid missing a goal? When we talk about Real Madrid there are Benzema, Modric, Vinícius, Sérgio Ramos… They are a great team. But when you have Cristiano on your team you should never let him out. Never! We are talking about the best, the most effective footballer in the world, a machine of work and sacrifice ”, he underlines, in an interview with the newspaper Marca.

“For me, he is the best in the world,” says Luís Castro, recalling CR7’s difficult journey to reach the top: “He has an exemplary history. He was alone in Lisbon, at the age of 11, to be a footballer, he left his home … It is a building that was built alone, with a unique determination. I think he is an example for all children.

And people criticize him too much. Who does this, who spends a lot of money on this or that … and he responds in the field every day, being aware of where he comes from “, underlines the Ukrainian technician, fired, convinced:” The day they make a film about His life and people really come from where they come from, how he became a footballer will value it much more »
