Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo wants Manchester United in Champions League
Dangermen: Cristiano Ronaldo (centre) and Real Madrid coasted into the quarter-finals with a comfirtable 4-1 aggregate win over LyonCristiano Ronaldo would prefer a sentimental return to Old Trafford rather than Real Madrid playing Barcelona in the Champions League quarter-finals. The draw is made on Friday and the former Manchester United winger hopes Real are paired with United of Schalke 04 whose striker is former Madrid legend Raul. Ronaldo said: 'I'd like to meet with United or with Raul, but not with Barcelona. 'I don't want Barca in the quarter-finals because to me they are the strongest team. I'm anxious to see what the draw holds.' If Real are drawn with Barcelona it would mean the two heavyweights of Spanish football meeting four times in two weeks - the teams play in the Copa del Rey final on April 20, three days after the return clasico in La Liga. Madrid progressed to the ChampionsLeague quarter-finals for the first time in seven years afterconvincingly seeing off Lyon to record a 4-1 aggregate victory. Old pals: Ronaldo is also keen on a reunion with ex-Madrid ace Raul, now at SchalkeMarcelo, Karim Benzema and Angel DiMaria struck the goals as Madrid put to bed their miserable record ofhaving fallen at this same last-16 stage for six successive editions -including against Lyon last season.The victory also means Madrid are astep closer to winning a record 10th European title, and keeps coachJose Mourinho on course to conquer Europe with three different teamsfollowing his success with Porto and then Inter Milan last year.
