Real Madrid forward, Cristiano Ronaldo, is primed to power
his side to the La Liga title this Sunday.
Ronaldo scored twice as Real Madrid beat Celta Vigo 4-1 on
Wednesday, taking Zinedine Zidane’s men to within a point of the La Liga title.
Madrid went into their outstanding fixture, knowing that
four points from their final two league fixtures, would guarantee them the
title regardless of Barcelona’s results. And they got three of those points in
Galicia.
Madrid only need to draw at Malaga on Sunday, to clinch
their 33rd La Liga title.
Their arch rivals, Barcelona will host Eibar at the same
time, hoping that Zidane’s men slip and they take full advantage.
“There is still one game to go. We know that we have to keep
going right until the end, and team has been really good, we’ve played well,
with confidence. We know that Málaga are strong at home, but we have to
concentrate on ourselves, go there, and win.
“We’re going there for a win. This team always has that
objective. We’re Real Madrid and we have to demonstrate that we’re better and
that we want to be the champions,” Ronaldo said ahead of the final round of
fixtures.
Speaking of a possible double, he stated that “we’re
thinking exclusively about Sunday. We have to win to be the champions. After,
we have 15 days to prepare for the Champions League.”
