He said, “The last one against this old man here [Buffon]. It was great to achieve 100 goals in the Champions League, for me it was a dream.
“I play for Madrid, the best club in the world, and I have the chance to play at the highest level all the time and enjoy it.
“I love to be here, to be on the stage, to win trophies. I’m really blessed and so happy to be here once again. It’s a great moment for me.”
