Casillas believes Real Madrid must win their Champions League final against Liverpool in Paris because they are missing the cherry.

The Spaniard said that Real Madrid’s iconic comeback victories against Paris Saint-Germain, Chelsea and Manchester City this season will mean nothing if they don’t beat the Premier League giants in the final at the Stade de France.

“The comebacks are all very well, but now you have to secure it, we are missing the cherry. If you don’t secure that cherry, the cake won’t be complete, no?

“If the cup doesn’t arrive in the cabinet, nobody will remember what happened with PSG, Chelsea and with Manchester City. In order to be thrilling, it has to be until the end, with the prize,” Casillas told Marca (via Mail).
