Man United defender Patrice Evra predicts that United will face Real Madrid at some point in this season’s Champions League. Real Madrid signed Cristiano Ronaldo from United during the summer after a few years of speculation.
It now seems inevitable that United will face Real Madrid sometime this season. I think most United fans feel exactly the same as Evra and most of us would love to face Madrid to show them exactly who is best.
"I know we will play Real Madrid," Evra told Inside United.
"I can't explain it. It is just a feeling. But I think we will play them, maybe even in the next round."
"I once played against him [Ronaldo] in an Under-21 international but remember, I used to face him every day in training. He knows it could be very difficult for him".
"Ronaldo was a close friend and I was sad to see him leave. But you need to accept it.
"And the thing about Manchester United is, no one player is the star – the club is the star. Sir Alex Ferguson tries to maintain that every year."
I really would love to face Madrid in this season’s Champions League, would you?
