Cristiano Ronaldo Reportedly Wants Isco to be Benched for the UCL Final Soccer

With less than two days time remaining, Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane is facing difficulties with the team selection for the Champions League finals. The Los Blancos will meet Liverpool on Saturday in Kiev.

A Spanish tabloid Don Balon revealed that Cristiano Ronaldo doesn't want Isco to start in the match against Liverpool and has advised the same thing to the coach Zinedine Zidane.

Isco lacks the pace and Liverpool defense cannot handle the pace. Gareth Bale, Marco Asensio or Lucas Vazquez would be the better options, the Portuguese captain believes.

Despite not getting much playing time. Isco netted 8 goals and assisted in 9 this season. He has also been incredible in the World Cup qualification with Spanish Team and has been included into the 23-man squad for Russia.

"I have 24 players available and I'm f*****. Sorry, but I can't find a better word, because there are players that will stay in Madrid and not come with us for the last two games. That's the hardest part for me." .

Zidane said.

The Frenchman was not sure if Ronaldo will be able to start the match. He met an ankle injury during the El Clasico and has not been completely fit.

Ronald was the key player behind the Real Madrid successful campaign to final. He has scored 15 goals in 12 matches this season so far.

Will he be the difference on Saturday?
