Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo has praised teammates Gareth Bale and Karim Benzema for taking the club to victory and winning the 10th European Crown.

The 29-year-old Portuguese national team Captain, who scored a record-breaking 16 goals in the Champions League this season, was full of praises for his pals at Real.

He said that the relationship shared by the three footballers was crucial to their attacking potential on field and described their connection as 'nearly perfect'.

According to Sport24, there was a huge media speculation that Ronaldo would not take kindly to Bale's arrival in Madrid last year as Real paid 145 million dollars to Tottenham Hotspur setting a new world record transfer for the winger.

 

However, Ronaldo was full of compliments for the Welsh footballer who scored 20 goals for Real this season, describing his strong fondness for the player.

Reports have revealed that Ronaldo would be making a rare club appearance in his homeland, where he began his career in Sports.
