Carlo Ancelotti calms Cristiano Ronaldo fears

Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti says Cristiano Ronaldo should be fit to play in the Champions League final after suffering an injury scare against Espanyol.

Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has reassured fans that Cristiano Ronaldo will be fit for the Champions League final against Atletico Madrid on Saturday.

The Portuguese had pulled out of Madrid's final league game of the season against Espanyol after picking up an injury shortly before kickoff.

Although he was taken off as a precaution, there were fears Ronaldo may miss the opportunity to help Los Blancos win the 10th European Cup in their history.

"Cristiano had confidence after training. We have taken risks and we have done some tests which points to a small spasm. He has time to recover for the final, we are calm," Ancelotti told Sportyou.

Ronaldo has scored 251 goals in 245 appearances for Madrid.
