Pre-match sound
Rangnick: Now I don’t see any reason why Ronaldo can’t participate in another game. He looks healthy. Ronaldo is a top player, he can take care of himself and his body, as well as the right diet. I have never seen a 36-year-old player in such a state, maybe the older Ibrahimovic is also, but they are different types of players. I don’t understand his doubts that he will not be able to play 3 games in 8 days, but if we need to rest him in one stage, it won’t be a problem, but Cavani is more important to the team at that time.
