MADRID – Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane claimed three-time World Player of the Year Cristiano Ronaldo is 100 per cent fit for Wednesday’s Champions League semi-final second leg showdown with Manchester City. Ronaldo missed last week’s 0-0 draw in the first leg due to a thigh injury, but took a full part in training on Monday and Tuesday. However, Zidane confirmed that Madrid will be missing two other key players in striker Karim Benzema and defensive midfielder Casemiro through injury. “Cristiano is fine, he is 100 percent, that is why he trained this week and will be there tomorrow,” Zidane said on Tuesday. “Karim and Casemiro are another thing. In the scan today Karim still has a problem and we don’t want to risk him,” he said. “The same with Casemiro. He doesn’t have a serious injury but it is a dilemma and we also don’t want to risk him,” he added. “We have a sufficient squad so that the rest can play.” Zidane also claimed Ronaldo was 100 percent on the eve of the first leg before the Portuguese was finally forced to miss out after feeling the recurrence of the muscle injury he picked up against Villarreal two weeks ago. However, having also sat out Real’s Gareth Bale-inspired 1-0 win at Real Sociedad on Saturday, Zidane is confident Ronaldo will be ready for another famous European night at the Santiago Bernabeu after scoring a hat-trick to overturn a 2-0 first leg deficit against Wolfsburg in the quarter-finals. Indeed, Ronaldo could break his own record for goals in a Champions League campaign from two years ago of 17 having hit 16 in just 10 appearances this season. “It has been over a week and little-by-little he has been recovering. He is a player like that, he recovers quickly,” added Zidane. “We need Cristiano at 100 per cent because he is a different player, as his numbers show. I would have liked Karim to be fit too, but it is not to be and others will play.” In the absence of Benzema, Ronaldo is expected to play in a central striking role flanked by the in-form Bale and Lucas Vazquez. However, City coach Manuel Pellegrini – who managed Ronaldo in his one year in charge at the Bernabeu in 2009/10 season – insisted his side can’t be too obsessed by stopping Ronaldo as they look to make history by reaching a first ever Champions League final. “Cristiano scores a lot of goals, you see the amount of goals he scored in six years here,” said Pellegrini.
