Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo "100% fit" for Manchester City showdown

Real Madrid head coach Zinedine Zidane has confirmed that Cristiano Ronaldo is "100% fit" to play against Manchester City in tomorrow's Champions League semi-final showdown at the Bernabeu.

The Portugal captain missed Madrid's last three games, including the first leg at the Etihad Stadium, which ended in a goalless draw last week.

The three-time Ballon d'Or winner returned to training over the weekend, boosting his chances of making an appearance.

Today, Zidane told reporters in his pre-match press conference that Ronaldo is ready to play and is likely to start for the Spanish giants when they fight for a place in the final.

Madrid have been boosted by Ronaldo's inclusion, but they will be without Karim Benzema and Casemiro, both of whom are injured.
