Asked whether Cristiano Ronaldo was the best player in Real Madrid history, coach Zinedine Zidane didn't evade the question and gave his verdict on the star man.
The French boss praised the recent Ballon d'Or winner, and while he didn't use the exact words 'best ever', his response clearly suggests as much.
"No Real Madrid player will ever achieve as much as Cristiano Ronaldo," he said. "I don't think I'm exaggerating when I say that.
"Chapeau for the four Ballon d'Or wins.
"It is very difficult to do what he is doing and I'm certain he can win one more."
As to whether the individual award will affect the Portuguese winger's preparation at all for the upcoming semi-final, the Frenchman played down the possibilities.
"His desire to win is tremendous," Zidane pointed out. "Even if it is just a friendly, Ronaldo will want to win.
"Same with any game during our training sessions.
"Cristiano [Ronaldo] is always like that- this award changes nothing."
