Evra braced for Ronaldo

Patrice Evra has already tackled Carlos Tevez this season... now he's relishing the prospect of facing another former team-mate, Cristiano Ronaldo.

The French full-back tells the new issue of Inside United that he expects to meet Real Madrid sooner rather than later.

"I can't explain it, it's just a feeling, but somehow I know we will play Real Madrid," says Evra. "Maybe I'm wrong but the feeling is there. Maybe even in the next round. It's crazy!

"I once played against Ronaldo in an under-21 international, but of course, I then faced him every day in training at United. He knows that could be difficult for him."

Evra also talks to Inside United about his goal-saving challenge on Tevez in the derby, his football ambitions and his family life in Manchester. The November issue is out now.
