Ramos Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos has claimed that
Liverpool talisman Mohamed Salah will be “just one
of 11 players” when the two sides lock horns in the
Champions League final.
Salah has enjoyed a superb
debut season at Anfield, scoring 43 goals in all
competitions this term and playing a vital role in his
side’s run to Kiev.
Standing in Liverpool’s way will be Zinedine Zidane
‘s Real, in the Champions League final for the third
season in a row and hoping to claim a third
consecutive trophy.
Despite Salah’s heroics on the red half of
Merseyside, Ramos insists that he has faced many
other world-class forwards over his career, and is
never scared of opponents, only respectful.
“We have seen what Salah can do this season, but
he will just be one of 11 players we face against
Liverpool,” Ramos is quoted by The Mirror as saying.
“Throughout my career, I have faced the best
forward players in the world – many of them who
are considered among the greatest ever. For me,
there is never a fear. A respect, yes, but never a
fear.”
Salah has also been instrumental for Egypt over the
past 12 months, helping the Pharaohs reach their
first World Cup since 1990.
