Keane dismisses Liverpool Champions League chances: Ronaldo the difference

Manchester United legend Roy Keane has dismissed Liverpool's chances of winning the Champions League final tomorrow.

Keane expects Real Madrid to win thanks to his former United teammate Cristiano Ronaldo.

"Who do I think will win it? I think Real will win it," said Republic of Ireland assistant coach Keane, speaking yesterday after Ireland's training session ahead of Monday's game in France.

"Why? Ronaldo. And there are some good support acts too. But I wouldn't begrudge Liverpool.

"I think Liverpool are playing some good stuff but in my opinion, Real would probably just edge it because of Ronaldo."
