Eden Hazard Comments On Facing His Old Friends In The Champions League Draw

Eden Hazard has noted that it’s good to face his former teammates but all he cares about in the end is the final score, pointing out that Real Madrid has to win, irrespective of whom they face.

“I played a bit more today than before, we have games before the end of the season and I want to be ready,” Eden Hazard told BT Sport after the Chelsea game as he was asked about facing his former side.

“I am just happy to be playing again. It’s always good to play against friends. Now I am a Real Madrid player so I just want to win.

“It [the result] could be better and it could be worse! We will go there looking for the win.”
