CRISTIANO RONALDO v VIRGIL VAN DIJK

MOHAMED SALAH may be the signing of the season but without Van Dijk, Liverpool would not be in Kiev. He has made everyone around him look better and Liverpool’s defence are more organised with him in the team. In Cristiano Ronaldo, he faces the biggest test of his career. You can do all the preparation you like to stop Ronaldo and still he will find a way to score. Van Dijk may be 6ft 4in but Ronaldo has the ability to out-jump him. He cannot afford to switch off for one second — and he must make sure Liverpool’s defence don’t panic if they fall behind.
