Real Madrid CF v Club Atletico de Madrid - UEFA Champions League Semi Final: First Leg
Sergio Ramos won't be cheering if Cristiano Ronaldo scores against Spain

Cristiano Ronaldo and Sergio Ramos inspired Real Madrid to a third consecutive UEFA Champions League a few days ago, but the two will be going up against each other when Portugal and Spain go head-to-head on the 15th of June.

After a triumphant UEFA Euro campaign in 2016, Ronaldo will be leading the Portugal side at Russia. The fans will be hoping that the 33-year-old brings his A-game to the tournament as his form is going to be crucial in deciding the team's fate in the World Cup.

Ronaldo's teammate Ramos will be wearing the captain's armband for his nation and will be leading the team from the back. The 32-year-old was a part of Spain's 2010 World Cup winning squad and will be aspiring to a part of yet another victorious squad. La Furia Roja is one of the early favorites to go home with the trophy.

Ronaldo and Ramos being attacker and defender respectively, it is going to be an exciting player to watch out for in the group stages of the World Cup.
