Ferdinand defends Real Madrid after controversial comments by Owen

real Madrid won a final again Champions League, now against Liverpool, with both from Vinicius Juniors. The conquest meant one more star for the Madrid team that remains the most successful in the competition.

Although the Spanish team won, for Michael Owen, a former Real Madrid and Liverpool player, the English team is still the strongest and most feared in Europe. In the previous one, the Reds were the favorites for Michael.

“I still think they are the scariest team in Europe, and they don’t have either of the two big trophies this season to prove that, and that will be the biggest pill to swallow. Real Madrid has overcome them today, a unique match is a unique match. It is exactly that”said Owen in the analysis of the final for English television.

“How can you say that they are the best team in Europe? They have just lost the league and the Champions League final. I don’t think they can be considered that, and I think it would be disrespectful to a team like Madrid that has gone and done what they have done. You have to have the big trophies in your hands to be called the best team in Europe.”answered

It is the first Champions League that Real Madrid has achieved since the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo, a Portuguese footballer with whom they won the ‘Orejona’ in four previous editions.
