Cristiano Ronaldo is NOT planning second child, insists Real Madrid star's mum

      Cristiano Ronaldo’s mum has rubbished reports he has made arrangements for a second child.

     A Portuguese TV presenter claimed at the end of last year the Real Madrid star had spent Christmas in Miami so he could expand his family.
His son Cristianinho, five, was said to have been born in a private clinic in the US with the collaboration of two Mexican surrogate mums.
Proud grannie Dolores Aveiro revealed in an approved biography published in July 2014 in Portugal that she had picked the youngster up from a private hospital in Florida.
Asked at the launch in Spain of the warts-and-all book yesterday/on Wednesday if her son was going to make her a grandmother again this summer, she said: “No. Perhaps some day but not now.”
In an obvious reference to the fact the crocked forward hasn’t had a serious girlfriend since his painful split in January last year with girlfriend-of-five years Irina Shayk, she added: “It would be a miracle.”
Mum-of-four Dolores, 61, confesses in the book titled ‘Mother Courage” she tried to abort the football star before he was born.
She admits to opting for a home recipe involving warm beer and mad exercise after a doctor refused to help her interrupt her pregnancy.
She confessed when the book, written by Paulo Sousa Costa, was released in Portugal: “Cristiano told me when he found out, ‘Look mum, you wanted to abort and now I’m the one who’s pulling the purse-strings in the house.”
Dolores, who beat breast cancer after being diagnosed with the disease in 2007, diplomatically sidestepped questions about her son’s love life at the official presentation in Spain of the book at Madrid’s Silken Puerta de America hotel.
The striker, who had to sit out Real Madrid’s opening Champions League semi-final tie against Man City on Tuesday because of injury, has been linked to a string of beauties including a Mexican air hostess and Topshop heiress Chloe Green.
Dolores insisted: “I don’t listen to what they say about him.
“I’m here to talk about my book, not the women Cristiano has been linked to. But it’s not something I suffer with because he’s got to live his life.”
She added: “He’s a very good son and a person who makes sure his family wants for nothing.”

Cristiano Ronaldo to decide on the day if he is fit for Manchester City clash, says Guillem Balague

Cristiano Ronaldo will "decide on the day" whether he fit enough to play in Real Madrid's Champions League semi-final second leg against Manchester City, says Guillem Balague.
   
After a 0-0 draw at the Etihad on Tuesday, which Ronaldo missed with a thigh injury, the forward is in a race against time to be fit for Wednesday night's crucial return leg at the Bernabeu.
Ronaldo - who will sit out Saturday's league game against Real Sociedad - would be a huge miss for Real having scored 16 goals in 10 Champions League games this season, and Balague says the fact the 31-year-old has chosen to take treatment away from the club is indicative of the "medical crisis" at Real.

Cristiano Ronaldo transfer: Man United target agrees clause to leave Real Madrid

According to Spanish newspaper Mundo Deportivo, Ronaldo has penned a first refusal deal with Paris Saint-Germain.

The sensational report claims Ronaldo, 31, will head to the Ligue 1 champions if a new contract with Real cannot be done.
Real president Florentino Perez wants his star player to sign fresh terms at the Bernabeu.
But Ronaldo is reportedly aware of his earning potential elsewhere and could decide to quit after seven years at the club.
United are known suitors of their former player, who left for the Spanish capital in 2009 after winning his third Premier League title.
Express Sport understands Jose Mourinho has agreed to become United's new manager this summer if Louis van Gaal leaves the club.
Mourinho, 53, is thought to be keen on signing Ronaldo if he gets the chance and the United board are already working on a proposed deal.
But PSG are willing to spend big on the Portugal international as they prepare to lose talisman Zlatan Ibrahimovic for free this summer.
Club president Nasser Al-Khelaifi is said to have agreed the deal, with Ronaldo's agent Jorge Mendes reporting back to Perez on the proceedings.

Watch out Manchester City! Goal-machine Cristiano Ronaldo is back in town to show the English public why he is top dog

            Cristiano Ronaldo’s absence during their weekend win at Rayo Vallecano had sparked fears he might miss the Champions League showdown with Manchester City.
            But you knew Ronaldo would have to be really, really incapacitated to miss this mouth-watering semi-final return to his old stomping ground of Manchester.

              His manager, Zinedine Zidane, delivered the reassuring news with a glint in his eye; Ronaldo is ‘100 per cent’ and primed for battle.
             Ronaldo isn’t a man usually in need of additional motivation, but the former Manchester United star will be doubly determined to give their rivals City a good duffing up when he plays at the Etihad Stadium on Tuesday night.
             A hero on the red side of Manchester, Ronaldo’s legend will only be enhanced if he denies City passage into a maiden Champions League final over the next eight days.
At 31, Ronaldo has been confronted by frequent and quite absurd notions that he is past it. A game without scoring raised eyebrows, a couple of barren matches is a disaster.
But how can it possibly be said that a man who has scored 47 goals this season - including 16 in the Champions League - is over the hill?
The current reckoning is 93 goals for Ronaldo and 83 for his Argentine adversary. You imagine he’s going to smash the 100 mark, probably next season.
So City have been warned. Ronaldo is undoubtedly going to receive a frosty reception at the Etihad but he’s no stranger to playing the pantomime villain, indeed he often thrives on it.
And he’s caused City plenty of pain in the past, too, for both Real and Manchester United before that.
Back in September 2012, it was Ronaldo who scored a stoppage-time winner as Real beat City 3-2 in a pulsating group stage encounter.
It was a case of what might have been for Roberto Mancini’s team, who led 2-1 with less than three minutes remaining before Ronaldo made the difference as he so often does.

Cristiano Ronaldo's injury analysis

Cristiano Ronaldo and Real Madrid were relieved to hear on Friday that the injury he suffered against Villarreal on Wednesday was not due to his hamstring.

Instead, it was revealed that the problem was located in the vastus lateralis on his right thigh, a much less serious area of the body and an injury which shouldn't present too much trouble for the player.He will miss the game against Rayo Vallecano but should be available for selection against Manchester City in the Champions League semi-final on Tuesday night, although the muscle problems could persist.Ronaldo played virtually the whole 90 minutes against the Yellow Submarine and gingerly left the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu pitch hobbling to the dressing room.The Portuguese forward went to Sanitas La Moraleja to be subjected to medical attention and after he left the clinic 45 minutes later with the test results, the 31-year-old went to consult with Real coach Zinedine Zidane and club doctors. It was then decided he would not feature on Saturday.Rest Had Ronaldo played against Rayo the risk of a muscle rupture would've been severe. Hence, Zidane will call upon his other attacking options to continue his fight for his first league title as a coach. He's persuaded Ronaldo to rest well in preparation for the game against City instead and on Saturday, the striker will continue his recovery as Madrid supporters around the world continue to hold their breath.

Cristiano Ronaldo allays injury fears with Instagram post

Cristiano Ronaldo has downplayed an injury sustained late in Real Madrid's win over Villarreal in La Liga.

The Portugal forward caused a scare when he left Wednesday's game before the final whistle limping with an apparent muscle injury in his right leg.
He walked off the field by himself at the Santiago Bernabeu at the end of Real's 3-0 victory, leaving Madrid with 10 men and worrying fans.
However, the three-time Ballon d'Or winner has posted on Instagram to reassure fans, saying: "All good. Thanks for your support."

The club said on Wednesday that Ronaldo was expected to have medical tests as a precaution.
Real Madrid's next game in the La Liga title race sees them travel to local rivals Rayo Vallecano on Saturday.
Madrid are one point behind Barcelona and Atletico Madrid with four matches left. The team is also in the Champions League semi-finals, where they face a two-legged affair with Manchester City.

Cristiano Ronaldo surges after Madrid Derby



When the last derby between Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid ended 1-0 to Atleti in February, Cristiano Ronaldo delivered a shocking post-match assessment, stating that Real "could be leading the table if everyone played at my level."
Those controversial quotes were have come to life, as Los Blancos went on to achieve seven consecutive La Liga wins, and are now fighting for a title which was seemingly lost with Barcelona being 10 points ahead.
Cristiano Ronaldo has been the leader behind that improvement, having scored 10 goals in the last five home matches played at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu.
The Portuguese attacker managed to hit the back of the net four times against Celta Vigo, one against Roma, Sevilla and Eibar and those very good numbers were completed when Ronaldo scored a hat-trick against Wolfsburg, clinching a spot in the Champions League semi-finals for his club.
Ronaldo is La Liga's leading scorer with 31 goals this season, five more than Barcelona's Luis Suarez, and has also scored 16 goals in the Champions League - just two goals away from breaking his own record for goals scored in the European competition.
Ronaldo will be back in the Santiago Bernabeu on Wednesday night, hoping to gain some more momentum for the crucial matches that Madrid will play in the upcoming weeks.

Cristiano Ronaldo to renew with Real Madrid until 2020


Cristiano Ronaldo is negotiating a new contract with Real Madrid, according to Spanish newspaper El Confidencial. In spite of the rumours that the Portuguese superstar might be leaving this summer, the relationship between the player and the club is said to have strengthened in the past weeks, with the improvement from both the side and the player himself, leading to the the two parties beginning talks over a possible renewal. Ronaldo is currently under contract until 2018.
According to the article, signed by Antonio Sanz, Real Madrid bosses want the player to finish his professional career at the club, and are keen to offer him a two year extension to his contract, to take it to 2020, when Cristiano would be 35. The player is said to be happy to consider a deal to 2021.
The remuneration figures being discussed are said to be “astronomical”. According to El Confidencial the club are keen to finalise the new deal and make it public before the end of the season, to put an end to any rumours of Ronaldo’s departure.“Florentino has no option but to renew or sell. That’s why he feels that keeping CR7 is still, as of now, the best plan”, says the article.

Cristiano Ronaldo 'to retire a Real Madrid player' as Portuguese reportedly discusses 2020 contract extension

Cristiano Ronaldo is in talks over a new contract at Real Madrid that would see him end his career at the Bernabeu, according to reports in Spain.
The flurry of stories today would appear to be a reaction to France Football's claims on Tuesday that the 31-year-old had met with Paris Saint-Germain president Nasser El-Khelaifi over a summer move less than 24 hours after Madrid's epic comeback against Wolfsburg in the Champions League, when handed a day off from training by the club.
Such timing, in particular, smarts for the Madrid public, as does hearing the excruciating details from the French publication - including the fact that the Hotel Bourget meeting last week was the fifth such rendez-vous between the two parties.


In the autumn, with PSG's growing interest and the player enjoying a tense relationship with Rafa Benitez, it seemed inevitable that Ronaldo would leave the Bernabeu this summer - resulting in Perez confronting Ronaldo over his media comments on PSG.
But FIFA's transfer ban and the Portuguese's upturn in form have made it suddenly far more difficult to justify his sale.
Senior figures at Madrid know, however, that this off-season is likely to be the final time they can recoup any of his value in the shape of a significant transfer fee.
El Confidencial , the home of one of this afternoon's reports, claim that Florentino Perez considers there to be only two options - renew or sell - because of Ronaldo's contract ticking over into its final two years this June.
The newspaper suggests a further two-year extension is likely, possibly even until 2021, while radio station Cadena COPE reported that the 31-year-old would retire a Madrid player.

Cristiano Ronaldo named Champions League Player of the Week

The Portuguese forward received the highest number of votes from the uefa.com users on the back of his excellent performance against Wolfsburg.

Cristiano Ronaldo has claimed the Champions League Player of the Week award for the sixth time. The Portuguese forward, who netted a tremendous hat-trick against Wolfsburg, has once again been recognised by the uefa.com users. Ronaldo received 74% of the vote, which placed him ahead of Antoine Griezmann and Arturo Vidal (who both registered 10% of the vote). With 16 goals to his name, the Whites' forward is the top marksman in this season's Champions League and now is just one goal away from matching his best goals return in the competition.


Actress reveals disappointing first date with Cristiano Ronaldo

HE may be a sporting hero, but it seems Cristiano Ronaldo could do with a few lessons in the love department.
British actress and glamour model Gemma Atkinson dated the Real Madrid star back when he was playing with Manchester United in 2007.
But the Emmerdale actress has revealed in a new interview that their very first date was about as unromantic as it gets.
“It was really, really glamorous,” she joked to Key 103 Radio.
“We just went to my house and drank cups of tea and watched Only Fools and Horses. Genuinely.”
“I don’t know if he’s into it now, but it was on the telly.
“Only Fools and Horses and cups of tea, he seemed to enjoy it then but I’m going back about six, seven years.”
Atkinson has previously spoken of their brief fling, telling the media in 2010:
“With Cristiano it was mad, because everywhere he went he was followed by photographers.
“When we did split up I got offered so much money to speak about him and I didn’t want that.”

    "Nothing is impossible with Cristiano Ronaldo" - the Spanish press delights in Real Madrid's Champions League comeback


    Real Madrid are in the Champions League semi-finals for the sixth time in a row after Cristiano Ronaldo's hat-trick handed them a 3-0 win and a memorable comeback at the Bernabeu.
    "Is there anyone that still doubts Cristiano?" asked Emilio Contreras, chief editor atMarca as part of a thumb-blackening 22 pages of coverage of the game.
    Their main match report, written by Santi Segurola, was titled "precision surgery" and chronicled an evening of "impeccable game management by Real Madrid."
    "Wolfsburg did not have a chance worthy of the name... They not once worried Keylor [Navas]."
    That's not strictly true, with Dante and Bruno Henrique both wasting great positions due to poor execution, but the Madrid press need little invitation to get carried away, even less on an evening like we witnessed at the Bernabeu last night.
    Perhaps unsurprisingly, much of the praise was reserved for Cristiano Ronaldo, whose early double settled any Bernabeu nerves and late free-kick sealed his hat-trick and semi-final qualification.
    Many of these eulogies focused on criticism Ronaldo has received this season:

    "He who is never there, he who never turns up, the decadent footballer, the irrelevant forward, who doesn't press, who doesn't celebrate... once again was the difference between the good of qualifying for the semi-finals of the Champions League (of course, the sixth in a row) and the bad that would have been a quarter-final elimination.
    "Cristiano again, once more him, another time the player that doesn't score quality goals. His hat-trick, the Nth that he has scored wearing this shirt, worth the price that serves for loading the train that heads direct to the undécima. "
    The undécima , in case you were wondering, is 'the eleventh' Champions League trophy that Real Madrid are now, we are told, destined for.

    Tuesday, 12 April 2016

    “We are confident and we will give everything on the pitch”, stated the forward, two days before the game against Wolfsburg.


    Cistiano Ronaldo, top scorer in the Champions League with 13 goals, showed his confidence in turning around the knockout tie against Wolfsburg. Two days before the decisive game at the Bernabéu, the Portuguese sent fans a message via Realmadrid TV and Realmadrid.com: “Tuesday will be a perfect night, it will be magical, with your support us players will give everything on the pitch and we will get through to the next round. ¡Hala Madrid!”.

    How to win against Wolfsburg
    “We can win by playing well, with 11 players on the pitch, more players on the bench and the 80.000 people I would love to see fill the stadium supporting the team, because this will give us a tremendous boost. I hope that it will be a magical night and I am very excited. The team are confident, the coach has faith and the fans must also have faith. Tuesday has to be a magical night”.

    The key to victory
    “It must be a perfect night. All aspects are important. Those of us on the pitch need to run fight and play with intensity for 90 minutes. Obviously, with the fans helping and supporting us it will be easier for us. It is also important to remain calm in certain situations, we need patience and to know how to suffer for the win. The key objective is getting through to the next round. It is the only option that will allow usplayers and the fans to leave the stadium happy”.

    Slate on Soccer: Lionel Messi vs. Cristiano Ronaldo and USWNT vs. USMNT


    Much like Tom Brady and Peyton Manning - two of the all-time greats in the NFL, for as long as Lionel Messi (22 goals, 10 assists) and Cristiano Ronaldo (30 goals, 11 assists) are both alive, they will always be compared and contrasted online, in living rooms, workplaces and bars around the world. After Barcelona’s surprising 1-0 loss to Real Sociedad on Saturday, Messi has now gone four matches without a goal (his longest stretch since May 2011) while Ronaldo scored a goal in Real Madrid’s 4-0 win vs. SD Eibar. The Portuguese star became the first player ever to score 30-plus goals in six straight La Liga seasons which is a pretty remarkable feat. 
    USWNT Takes a Stand
    The U.S. women’s national team is making plenty of news both on and off the field these days as five of their players recently filed a wage-discrimination complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission late last month. The disparity in pay between the U.S. men’s and women’s team (which is much more successful) is striking in 2016 when you could easily argue (with plenty of numbers to back it up) that the women’s team is both more popular and profitable than their male counterparts. Co-captain and defender Becky Sauerbrunn even suggested on Monday that her team could boycott the upcoming Rio Olympics this summer if their salary demands aren’t met by then.

    The Beat Goes on for the UConn Women’s Basketball of Soccer
    While it hasn’t quite reached the absurd level of the Huskies’ dominance in college basketball, the U.S. women have re-emerged as a superpower in world soccer with few peers that can come close to their peak level. They beat Colombia 7-0 last Wednesday in Hartford and 3-0 on Sunday in Philly. In 2016, Jill Ellis’ club is 11-0-0 and they’ve outscored opponents 42-1. Their next match - June 2 vs. Japan in Colorado - should provide much more of a test for the best women’s team in the world. 

    Checking In With Some Talented American Players In Europe
     If you are a fan of the U.S. men’s team, two names that you should know are defender Matt Miazga (Chelsea) and midfielder Christian Pulisic (Borussia Dortmund). You read that correctly, two young Americans are currently playing for two of the top clubs in Europe and really challenging themselves to get better (what a concept!) instead of choosing to dominate inferior players in MLS. The 20-year-old Miazga started for Chelsea in their 1-0 loss to Swansea City on Saturday while 17-year-old Pulisic started up front in Dortmund’s 2-2 draw with Schalke on Sunday. Keep it up guys.  

    UEFA Champions League: Real Madrid seek redemption for first-leg Wolfsburg humiliation


    Real Madrid are determined to create an intimidating atmosphere for visitors VfL Wolfsburg as they try to overturn a two-goal deficit in Tuesday's Champions League quarter-final second leg at the Santiago Bernabeu stadium.
    "Tuesday will be like a war, with 80,000 spectators; we are going to try and walk all over Wolfsburg," said defender Dani Carvajal.
    "We're going to play to the death and with 80,000 souls behind us we will do it," added winger Lucas Vazquez.
    Forward Cristiano Ronaldo told the club website (www.realmadrid.com): "We need to have cold hearts and play with patience and know how to suffer. Getting through is our big objective, it's the only thing that will let the players and fans leave the stadium happy."
    Madrid are third in La Liga and enjoyed a 4-0 win over Eibar on Saturday to close the gap with leaders Barcelona to four points, lifting their confidence after the shock 2-0 defeat at Wolfsburg last Wednesday.
    The German side are eighth in the Bundesliga and were held 1-1 by Mainz on Saturday. Coach Dieter Hecking made four changes from the team that beat Madrid and was without Julian Draxler, the outstanding player last week, through suspension.
    Real, 10-times European champions, have a history littered with great comebacks at the Bernabeu, beginning with a 5-1 win over Derby County in the 1975 European Cup after they had lost 4-1 in England.
    Madrid beat Inter Milan 3-0 to reach the final of the 1985 UEFA Cup after losing the semi-final first leg 2-0, when midfielder Juanito famously warned Inter: "Ninety minutes in the Bernabeu is a very long time".
    Madrid also staged successful second-leg comebacks against Celtic, Anderlecht, Red Star Belgrade and Borussia Moenchengladbach but their reputation as miracle workers is waning and they last overturned a deficit in
    2002 when they beat Bayern Munich 2-0 at the Bernabeu in a quarter-final second leg on their way to winning the trophy.
    Since then, Madrid have lost eight first-leg games in the Champions League knockout stages and failed to progress every time, exiting last season's tournament to Juventus 3-2 on aggregate and managing only a 2-0 win over Borussia Dortmund in the 2013 semi-finals after losing the first leg 4-1.
    Yet Madrid's self belief remains strong.
    "We're going to turn it around because everyone who comes to the stadium and follows us deserves it, our badge deserves it and we work all year for those big nights," said defender Nacho.
    "Real Madrid's history was written on nights like these and I hope we can do it again on Tuesday," added director and former striker Emilio Butragueno, who played in the famous comebacks against Inter, Anderlecht and Gladbach.
    Wolfsburg, though, are equally determined. "On Tuesday we'll be at 100 million percent, we're going to run as if our lives depended on it," forward Andre Schurrle told German news agency DPA.
    "Since we beat Real Madrid the entire city has been talking about that game and the second leg. It won't be easy."
    Madrid striker Karim Benzema and Raphael Varane were injured against Eibar but trained on Sunday and are expected to return to face Wolfsburg.

    Cristiano Ronaldo sets goal record as Real Madrid thrash Eibar, Fernando Torres lifts Atletico Madrid


    Cristiano Ronaldo became the first player to hit 30 La Liga goals in six consecutive seasons as he inspired Real Madrid to a 4-0 thrashing of Eibar on Saturday.
    Elsewhere, Fernando Torres was on target again as Atletico Madrid triumphed 3-1 at Espanyol.
    Ronaldo netted in the 19th minute and also provided passes for Lucas Vazquez and Jese to score as the hosts stormed into a 4-0 halftime lead.
    James Rodriguez had opened Real’s account with a curling free kick in the fifth minute.
    Real are third in the league on 72 points, one behind Atletico and four adrift of Barcelona who play Real Sociedad later on Saturday.
    Coach Zinedine Zidane made eight changes to the team that suffered a shock 2-0 defeat at VfL Wolfsburg in the Champions League in midweek with only Ronaldo, Pepe and Casemiro keeping their places.
    Brazilian right back Danilo was booed by the home fans for his disappointing display at Wolfsburg when he came on in the second half but it was an otherwise positive afternoon for Real who host Wolfsburg in their quarter-final second leg on Tuesday.
    Rodriguez was criticised for being caught laughing on the sidelines in Germany in midweek but the Colombia international lifted the crowd by scoring early on, his first goal in just under two months.
    A fine piece of skill from Ronaldo allowed Vazquez to pass the ball into an empty net in the 18th minute before the record-breaker finished off a cut-back from the lively Jese a minute later.
    Ronaldo returned the favour for the 23-year-old in the 39th minute as Real made it 4-0.
    Eibar’s top scorer Borja Baston hit the crossbar in a rare attack for the visitors who are 10th in the table.
    Fernando Torres lifts Atletico Madrid
    Torres bounced back from his sending-off in the midweek Champions League defeat to Barca by scoring his third goal in as many games, cancelling out Papa Diop’s opener in the 29th minute for Espanyol.
    France international Antoine Griezmann grabbed his 20th league goal of the season to put the visitors ahead on 58 minutes and midfielder Koke sealed the points for Diego Simeone’s side with a close-range finish in the 89th.
    Simeone made one change from the team that lost 2-1 at the Nou Camp, replacing Saul Niguez with Augusto Fernandez.
    Torres hit the bar early on but Senegal midfielder Diop headed Espanyol in front from a corner.
    The former Chelsea and Liverpool striker equalised by converting a pass from Koke.
    Torres was then also involved in the other goals by Griezmann and Koke.

    Oliver Kahn reveals he's "seen more of Cristiano Ronaldo's six-pack than his wife's breasts" lately


    The internet went mad after Real Madrid uploaded a photo from their dressing room after their victory in El Clasico - mainly because it featured Cristiano Ronaldo in just his pants.
    And while we have many questions that need answering about that photo, one individual genuinely was mad about it. Furious, in fact. Step forward Mr Oliver Kahn .
    Speaking to German broadcaster ZDF, Kahn said, "Lately, I've been seeing more of Cristiano Ronaldo's six-pack than my own wife's breasts."

    What. A. Line. Suffice to say that Oliver Kahn is not impressed.
    Now, we've never seen Mrs Kahn's breasts and we very much doubt you have either (if you're saying you have, we'll happily call you a liar. Unless it's you reading, Oliver, in which case we're very, very sorry and please don't come over and beat us up).
    But we see where he's coming from on the whole Ronaldo showing off thing.

    And here - why is he showering outside? SURELY Ronaldo can afford a holiday which allows him the chance to shower indoors? You're just doing it for the sake of it.

    Cristiano Ronaldo calls on Real Madrid fans to help overcome Wolfsburg



    Cristiano Ronaldo has issued a rallying call to Real Madrid supporters before Tuesday’s crunch Champions League clash with Wolfsburg, urging them to play their part on what could be a “magical, perfect night” at the Bernabéu.
    Madrid must overturn a 2-0 deficit from last week’s first leg in Germany if they are to reach the semi-finals of the competition for a sixth successive season.


    Recent history is against Madrid, with the Spanish giants having failed to recover from a first-leg away defeat on the last five occasions, but Ronaldo is confident it will be a different story this time.
    “Tuesday will be a perfect night, it will be magical, with your [Real Madrid fans] support we’re going to give our best on the pitch and we’re going to get through the tie,” Ronaldo told the club’s website.
    “Playing well, with the players on the pitch, those on the bench and with the 80,000 people who I would love to see in the stadium supporting the team, because that’s going to give us a very big boost. I hope it will be a magical night, I’m really excited.”
    First-half goals from Ricardo Rodríguez and Maximilian Arnold earned Wolfsburg a valuable lead in their first appearance in the last eight as Madrid were brought crashing back to earth following their impressive league win over Barcelona.
    Madrid responded to the European setback with a 4-0 win over Eibar at the weekend, their seventh victory in eight games and a result that helped them move back to within four points of stuttering leaders Barça.
    Ronaldo says morale is high in the camp but knows they need everything to come together if they are to get past Wolfsburg and keep alive hopes of a record 11th European Cup title.

    The midfielder Toni Kroos added: “It will be important to get the upper hand early on. We don’t want it to still be 0-0 at half-time We have to play attacking football, without doubt, but we have to play wisely.”“The team have confidence, the coach has confidence and the fans have to have confidence as well,” he added. “It has to be a perfect night. All the different aspects are important. The players have to run, fight and be intense throughout the 90 minutes. Also, we have to have cool heads, patience and be prepared to suffer.”
    Wolfsburg are bracing themselves for a Madrid onslaught but the forward André Schürrle believes the longer they can keep the game goalless the better it is likely to be for them.
    “It’s going to be a brutally hard game,” said Schürrle, who has scored five of Wolfsburg’s last eight goals. “We’re going to have to run as if our lives depended on it.
    “Real are warned. The atmosphere’s going to be electric and if we can get to half-time with the score at 0-0 or with us in front, I know their fans are going to get unsettled.”
    Wolfsburg warmed up for the trip to Spain with a 1-1 draw at home to Mainz on Saturday, a result which left them eighth in the Bundesliga, nine points adrift of the top four.

    Dutch side mock Cristiano Ronaldo with ridiculous re-enactment of team photo


    Dutch second division side Almere City FC celebrated a victory in their search for promotion by mocking Cristiano Ronaldo and "the pose" recently.
    Real Madrid celebrated their 2-1 victory over Barcelona at the weekend with a team photo in the dressing room directly after the battle. For all intents and purposes, it was an uplifting photo which showed just how much it meant to the team having defeated their most bitter rivals for the first time in La Liga since 2014. 
    Upon further inspection, Ronaldo(far left) was seen using it as a chance to show off his washboard stomach and rock-hard pecks and Almere's very own "Ronaldo" decided to strip to to his underpants in a hilarious re-enactment of that ridiculous photo.

    Cristiano Ronaldo is four goals ahead of Barcelona's Luis Suarez in the race to be La Liga's top scorer



    Cristiano Ronaldo became the first player to score 30 goals in six successive La Liga seasons as Real Madrid beat Eibar comfortably.
    Karim Benzema, who is battling a knee injury, and Gareth Bale were rested as Real prepare for Tuesday's Champions League game against Wolfsburg.
    James Rodriguez steered in a free-kick, with Lucas Vazquez adding a second.
    It was 4-0 by half-time, with Ronaldo firing in a square pass from Jese, who tapped in the fourth.
    Real trail 2-0 against Wolfsburg as they head into Tuesday's quarter-final second leg at the Bernabeu, with manager Zinedine Zidane acknowledging that his team's season would be over if they fail to progress.
    Zidane's side went into the weekend lying seven points behind leaders Barcelona in the title race and with hopes of winning La Liga all but gone.
    Eibar, who have failed to win in eight league matches, were caught on the counter-attack repeatedly as they played a high defensive line.
    Their performance improved significantly in the second half, though, with midfielder Gonzalo Escalante heading against the bar late on after Borja Baston had glanced on a corner.
    Victory on Saturday moved Real up to second place for a couple of hours, although Atletico Madrid regain that position later on Saturday with a 3-1 win at Espanyol.
