Cristiano Ronaldo: Real Madrid star fired Los Blancos to a first leg lead over PSG

Real Madrid will face PSG 3-1 up from an enthralling first leg at the Bernabeu.

Ronaldo was the hero for Los Blancos, scoring twice with Marcelo adding a third after Adrien Rabiot had given PSG a first leg lead.

Asensio, however, changed the game with his raw pace and trickery helping put Unai Emery’s Ligue 1 giants to the sword.

And Spanish website Don Balon claim Cristiano Ronaldo has been told by Zinedine Zidane that Asensio may be unleashed from the start at the Parc des Princes.

The Spain international has endured a frustrating campaign.
