The goal that Hazard always wanted to score: “Zidane's volley …”

The Belgian midfielder of Real Madrid, Eden HazardHe is happy for the return of the Champions League and confesses that of all the goals that have been scored in the tournament he would have liked to score that of Zinédine Zidane in the 2002 final against Bayer Leverkusen. “That is easy. The one with Zinédine Zidane in the final of the 'Champions League' against Leverkusen in 2002. Volley left, to the squad, goodbye, “Hazard said in an interview published Monday by UEFA.

In a conversation focused on goals, La Louvière also acknowledges that the Cristiano Ronaldo's Chilean against Juventus in 2018 he liked the most. “I was in front of the television, and I said to myself:”Wow, what a goal!“he said, without forgetting the similar action of Gareth Bale in the final of months later against Liverpool. On a personal level, he especially remembers the first he scored in the European competition during a 0-3 of Chelsea against Schalke.

“The first is always special. I could and should have passed the ball to Fernando Torres, but I did it myself, so I was lucky that the ball came in, that's why it's my favorite. I think he (Torres) was waiting to complete his hat-trick, so it was my fault … Sorry, Fernando, “he recalled with a laugh. Anyway, he prefers to attend a teammate than dial because” the feeling is the same when you see the ball in the net. “

“In my mind, not only do I think about scoring goals. Some players now only think about scoring goals, but I'm more of the type of player who can create things and that's why I like to say that I'm more of an assistant than a goal-scoring machine.“I prefer to give assists, but I also like the feeling of scoring a nice goal, a last minute goal, and winning the game in the end,” Hazard added.

Finally, celebrate the return of the Champions this week. “I can not believe it. I think the world, the people, need to watch soccer because it gives you happinessThat's why we all love soccer. I think that months have passed without the 'Champions' and without matches of this level, and people just want to see this, “he said.
