Ferdinand: “How can you maintain that they are the best team in Europe?”

The post-match of the Champions League final left a bitter debate on British television between Rio Ferdinand, ex-United, and Michael Owen, ex-Liverpool. The one who was a striker for Real Madrid he had predicted the victory of the ‘reds’ in the final arguing that they are the best team in Europe, something that he maintained despite losing the final.

“I still think they are the best team in Europe, really. Other times they would be carving their name on the trophy,” Owen said after the match, to which Ferdinand answered: “How can you say they are the best team in Europe? They just lost the league and the Champions League final.”
