Mesut ozil dribbling Rafael in RealMadrid

It’s Cristiano Ronaldo against his old team, Manchester United, in a Champions League bout. While everyone is getting excited for the match, there are always keys to watch for. Xabi Alonso is one yellow card away from a suspension, so he’ll have to play cautiously. United will do their best to force him into making a mistake. Sir Alex Ferguson knows the type of player Ronaldo is, so there’s a good chance we’ll be seeing an extra man on him for the duration of the match. Ferguson has been known for man-marking the biggest threats on the opposition. This should leave Mesut Ozil to steal the show. The space that will be in front of him will give Ozil many opportunities to make plays.
