Madrid's "Real" star Cristiano Ronaldo added two more precise strikes to his UEFA Champions League account, and the royal club secured a victory against Paris' "Saint-Germain."
Defending champions "the whites" won the first leg of the quarter-final with a score of 3-1. C. Ronaldo definitely doesn't think that "Real" has already advanced to the next stage, but he emphasized that they have the experience to do so.
"The fans today were incredible. They helped us every minute, because we felt their atmosphere," said the Portuguese. "The team just adores playing in the Champions League, and the fans can feel it too."
"It was a very important victory. We started the game quite well, but then we conceded a goal. That's the Champions League, but we have enough experience. We try to play well for the full 90 minutes, and the last two goals helped us gain a very important advantage.
We knew how dangerous the PSG team is - especially with their attacking line. We wanted to press them so that they wouldn't make many passes forward. In the second half, we had to wait for our chances a bit, but we waited for the right moment and achieved our goal.
The fight is far from over. We will have to go to Paris and try to win there. The most important thing is to stay calm and keep moving forward," Ronaldo concluded.
