"Chelsea, PSG and City were better so you've got to respect RM"

Cesc Fabregas thinks the final in Paris is very even. He believes that if there is something Liverpool and Madrid have shown, it is that they are capable of beating whoever is in front of them. 

The Monaco footballer admitted to 'Catalunya Radio' that in the last 16, quarter-finals and even semis, he doubted that Madrid could go all the way. "I thought that PSG were better, Chelsea were better and City were better... They're in the final and you've got to respect them."

"Real Madrid know their way of playing, they're very good," Fabregas said. "The Real Madrid shirt weighs a lot on their and their opponents' mind," he said when asked about the numerous times Madrid have fought back this season in Europe. "They're a very competitive side. They believe in themselves and are going until the end," he concluded. 

In other news, he also talked about his old club Barca. "Gavi is just 17 years old and can get better. Pedri will be a star," he pointed out.
