Sergio Ramos’ abilities in the box makes him a player to watch out for

If there is one man who has been a constant thorn in the flesh of Atletico Madrid, it is Sergio Ramos. He scored the last two times these sides met in the UEFA Champions League, both in the final.

While his ability to contribute in attacking department has made him a hero at the club, his defensive contributions cannot be overlooked. The leader of Los Blancos defence, he has been fearless, sometimes even reckless going into battles and will be critical to the success of his side.

The likes of Griezmann and Torres possess the ability to make even the best of defenders suffer on their day, but Ramos is an experienced head who has the ability to keep in check the best in the business and will be relishing the opportunity to prove his mettle once again.
