Breaking news: the fear of Ronaldo cause massacre in atletico Madrid ,as Suarez and Diego simeone sends message to teams players after UCL draw.

 Manchester United’s last 16 Champions 

League clash will bring the Red Devils up against

 a hated former enemy.



Former Liverpool forward Luis Suarez leads

 the line for Atletico and in his last meeting 

against United, he helped Barcelona win 

in the 2018/19 Champions League

 quarter-finals.


A lot has changed for United now in 2021/

22, while Suarez will be 35 by time the Champions

 League clashes come around. But as Cristiano

 Ronaldo continues to show, age is just 

a number.



Speaking via Mundo Deportivo in reaction 

to the draw, Suarez mentioned Ronaldo as 

the irrepressible main man Atletico have to 

focus their attention on.

Atletico won’t need reminding. Ronaldo’s last

 match against them was a 3-0 win with Juventus

 in 2019, to overturn a 2-0 deficit. Suarez 

was still at Barcelona at the time.

Suarez said: “He continues to show what kind

 of player he is. At United he is a more than 

important piece and you always have to be 

careful with that kind of player.”


Ronaldo scored six goals in five Champions 

League appearances for United this season 

and has 13 goals already for the club since

 returning.


Suarez is still scoring for Atletico too. 

He has seven La Liga goals this season, 

but just one in the Champions League.


He added: “To win the ‘Champions’ you have 

to face the best and that is why United is there

, for being one of the best in Europe. You 

have to beat everyone.”


Ronaldo has faced Suarez several times 

before in El Clasico clashes, and while the 

Atletico star made no mention of him, there

 is another Manchester United player he 

knows even better.


Edinson Cavani has been his international strike

 partner for Uruguay for the past decade and

 the pair know each other well, even if their

 meetings at club level have been rare.


United need Cavani to get back to full fitness

 and he could provide a real edge in the second

 half of the season if United can get him firing.


It is Ronaldo who will take centre stage against

 Atletico of course. The hat-trick in their last

 meeting was one of three he has scored 

against the club, with 25 total goals against

 them.He would dearly love to add to that 

figure for United next February and March.
