Winning mentality of Real Madrid was one of the key factors for winning championship. Many will disagree with me but I have seen that many times. Also I would agree with `sergio red`, Zidan is doing great job as a coach, He surely can find a way to motivate and compose team. We can see that as we compare Real in first and in second half. They define a strategy for second half and they did it well. Juve players helped them, also totally different team in second half. Second goal for Madrid was lucky shot, third came very fast, from that moment Juves game totally collapsed. They looked to me like a strong solid team during a season. Only three goals in their net and four in one game...

Cristiano Ronaldo is definitely the most ambitious football player ever. He always wants more. Most players become too complacent when they are rich, or maybe when they finally get golden boot and golden globe awards. He is on a mission to have the highest award count ever, and break all records. He has all cups, now he is just missing the world cup. I hope we can see Portugal win 1 world cup with Ronaldo before he retires.
He is a very competent  and competitive player but the truth of the matter is that he plays for Portugal and historically they have always lacked something, maybe they lacked someone like Ronaldo, but this is a team game he cannot carry them all, they need to be as hungry as him if they want a chance to win the world cup.
Definitely,
Cristiano Ronaldo is a very ambitious player, his scoring hungry makes him more serious, he is a diligent athletic, he always try to keep fit in any situation, besides a great player he is also a great leader, in pitch he always try to motivate other team mates, he loves score more and more. He is also a lucky man...

He's going to keep trying until near age 40 or so because he wants a world cup. In order to be a real legend in football you MUST at least win 1 world cup. He already got the Euro, now he needs to go for the world cup. So we have 2018, then 2022, I doubt he will still be around to be able to play in the 2026 world cup.

If he is fit enough to keep on playing then I wouldnt mind. He is good enough even now and there is no other player that could beat him yet instead of messi so why not. I would love to see him keep playing and imagine how bad would it be if there isnt any ronaldo or even messi anymore in real madrid or barcelona

He is a very competitive player and success has shown the entire world that hard work and dedication towards a goal will always accomplish it, he set his mind on becoming a world class player and he's been rated with Kaka, Ronaldinho and now Messi, if you see the timeline of these comparison, he will see that he has had  great career in football.


I think Ronaldo will retire way later on compared to the average player. Messi will retire before Ronaldo I think. Ronaldo is always in top shape and is super dedicated, his athleticism is one of the best ever seen. I think he could reach age 40 and still be able to compete at the elite.
Yes, maybe you're right, he have a good potential and a good body compared to messi. As you said, "his athleticism is one of the best ever seen".
I think he will retire way later after a big seasons in la liga with Real Mardid.

yeah only injuries can derail Ronaldo from playing for longer periode and judging from his injury history he doesn't get injurrd often so that's would be great news for him because most of players retires due having multiple injuries that he suffered before and will be afraid to suffer when he is getting much older and defintly his physics will be helping him on his future look at Zlatan about when month from his bad Ligament injury he was seen back kicking the ball at his age that is very impressive thing to see too bad that Manchester United now is looking to replace him it was nice seeing him play in the Premier League.

Congratulations to all the supporters and the team itself for winning Champions League. Cristiano Ronaldo showed an awesome game, with scoring first goal. Though Juventus gave a equal goal within 7 mins, but after half time, back to back scoring by Casemiro and Ronaldo just nearly finished the game. It became on-sided, Marco's 90 minute goal was just a cherry on top  Tongue

I think Juventus played way better in last two years finals than this one, tactically inept and Allegri decision to play Alves as winger baffles me whiles he had Cuadrado on the bench.

Madrid the dominant force in Europe again & you have to praise them for it. Once Ronaldo retires though or moves on they will struggle, they rely on him so much.

If Ronaldo wasn't there would they still be this good? I doubt it, other teams would have a much better chance.
Definitely, ronaldo is the key player of real.. I don't see the team going anywhere without him (just like I don't see juventus going anywhere without Buffon once he retires, which won't be long from now seen his age)
Even if Buffon is a great player, he is just the goalkeeper, You cannot replace him and his enormous experience but you can get a younger goalkeeper with greater physical attributes, in the case of Ronaldo there is only one like him once in a while, if Messi did not exist he will be in the minds of many the undisputed best player in the world.

Finally it is all over and real madrid takes it again literally thrashing juventus , i actually didn't really expect that match would get over in full time and was really looking foward for penalties but real madrid got it right this time defeating juventus that too in finals by 4-1.
Next season chelsea will be there in league along with my favourite bvb. Let's hope a german team wins this time

I think, credit should go to zidane regarding the fantastic performance of Cristiano Ronaldo and Real Madrid team, he has managed very carefully and wisely, it helped them​ fit and capable to do more...
Hopefully next year, this rotation system will bring out more good result for Real Madrid..
Really Zidane can give a very wise strategy, he always rotates every game so that all players always get a chance to play and the opportunity is not wasted by these players, so with the opportunity given that the Real Madrid players are good core or quality reserves to be the same.

I remember when Zidane was proposed as the trainer for Real Madrid, a lot of people said it was insane because Zidane was a player that retired not a long ago, and doesn't have any trainer experience to take the responsibility of 1st trainer of Real, and now he has proved everyone wrong making this awesome achievement of 2 wins in a row.

i have recently watching the news that some people linking the achievement of Zidane with Marcello Lippi when he was still playing for Juventus and Lippi as the coach because at the time Lippi as the mentor provide his knowledge to his players such as Zidane, Conte and Deschamps and most of them has been success as the players and also as the coach so indirectly Lippi has made Zidane success

Soccer is a team game. Everyone in the team contributed to the success of Real Madrid including the coach and even the technical team. However, a team without a leader is like a headless chicken running around. We have to give credit to Zidane for the wonderful leadership he has provided to the team to achieve such success. even if the players are good like Ronaldo and the coach is not inspiring, the team will go nowhere as there will be no cohesion in the team.

Well said, if you want to win then you have the mentality to win any situation, that type of mental preparation has been grown in the zidane side, they are fully dedicated to win any competitive match, that was one of the vital point of Real Madrid football team. Also they were fully physically fit and mentally prepared to win the game...

He is fantastic player yup he won almost all top tournament cups and awards, and he is the richest player in all format of sports won golden boot and many awards. But yes only one cup is missing world cup I think he will make this dream true before he gets retires. In coming world cup he must win, if he misses this chance, i think it will become tough for him to win the world cup.
