Roberto Carlos on Real Madrid and Liverpool clash: Mohamed Salah will not approach Ramos!
Brazilian international Roberto Carlos, the legend of Real Madrid, commented on the results of the Champions League quarter-final draw, and spoke sarcastically about the expected reaction of our Egyptian player, Mohamed Salah, during the match.
The quarter-final draw, which was drawn this Friday afternoon in the Swiss city of Nyon, pitted Liverpool against Real Madrid, in a repeat of the 2018 final (see the results of the Champions Quarter-finals draw).
Salah has painful memories of facing Real Madrid on the last occasion, during the 2018 Champions League final, when he suffered a severe shoulder injury from Sergio Ramos, Real Madrid's captain, that kept him away from his first World Cup match in Russia that year, and affected his level in the World Cup Finals. And the beginning of his season with the Reds.
"Mohamed Salah will not approach Sergio Ramos in this match," said Carlos, laughing.
"We will play against a good team. The first match will be on our land, and this is good for Real Madrid," he added in statements published by the Spanish newspaper "Marca".
He continued: "The important thing is that Zidane has ready players, and that the injured players return as soon as possible."
He concluded his remarks, saying: "We have to beware of Liverpool a lot, they have good players."
