Sergio Ramos gives the keys to his last-minute goals
When Sergio Ramos finally hangs up his boots and enters the legend of Real Madrid, it won't just be because of his exemplary captaincy, but also because of his game-saving goals, something he was keen to explain.
So many have come in finals and the captain noted the keys to his last-minute miracles.
You have commented that in your childhood you liked to score goals. Do you think any of that has influenced your special relationship with the goal?
"Yes. I always played as a striker and one always imitated the celebrations of strikers like Ronaldo. It made me more comfortable in offensive situations and it may make me act differently than other defenders who have not played this way as a child."
Where would you say that makes the difference in headers? Intuition? Physical power? The jump?
"I think you have defined it quite well. It is a cluster. In addition to training, you have to have a good connection with those who deliver the cross, whether Toni Kroos, Luka Modric or James. That coordination of gestures makes everything, mixed with the physical power and training, come out well. Not all finish with the same efficiency but that is also a sign of continued work. My old man always reminded me about them a lot, when we did those exercises on the beach. Movement, screen, synchronisation ... everything."
Have you noticed a change of attitude in the rivals who defend you at corners?
"For these last years it is true that perhaps by the goals scored, I do note that special attention. It is not normal for two and up to three players to mark me, but hey, that benefits the team because I drag rivals away and make it easier for other teammates like Casemiro, who scored against Barcelona, or Pepe who did it in the derby. We all benefit."

Marca predicted Ceballos and Vallejo's moves back in 2015, but barca fans will still cry we're signing the former to keep him away from them.

One time for this mastermind. Jose Angel Sanchez.
Perez gets all the credits but this guy has been pulling strings from the back for a long time now.The negotiation master. Some of the deals he pulled off: Casemiro, Ceballos, Kroos, Isco, Asensio, Kovacic and Modric (for €160M in total)

And he's only 49. Perez should get the credits for signing him. Mourinho tried to lure him away once.

The seduction of Real Madrid
There is no club more seductive than Real Madrid at present, especially when it comes to winning the battle with Barcelona for new signings.
A trend in the last two years has continued after the successes of recent months.
Theo, Vinicius, Ceballos ... All three chose Madrid.
The Betis player will have to compete with eight players to hold down a midfield slot, but he prefers that challenge over being handed a potential starting place at the Camp Nou.
Zinedine Zidane can't promise him minutes but it's precisely the French coach that is one of the main elements of the seduction at the club.
In the eyes of most players in the world he is a former idol, but if you join his impressive resume as a coach, his flawless behaviour on the bench and his way of managing the team, convincing players to join your project seems much easier.
Accused for many years of not having a project to follow, Madrid has worked in recent times in a well defined line. Youth and talent.
A formula that has led them to winning two Champions Leagues in a row and also a LaLiga title.
Galactico signings have stopped being the priority in a team that now transmits sacrifice, good vibes and pure football.
There are those who point out that it is the money that brings the players to Madrid, but to believe that it is the only thing that motivates them to sign is wrong.
Real's salary policy was never as strict as it is now and there is a scale which no one flouts.
Theo had superior offerings to Madrid's, as did Vinicius, but the two chose Real for what it transmits, not for what they will receive economically.
Nor will the team do crazy things for Mbappe.
The Spaniards won't pay anywhere close to the 12 million euros per year offered by Paris Saint-Germain, those numbers are things of the past.
Mbappe will choose Madrid for the same reason that Vinicius, Ceballos and Theo did; for the project.
For their ambition, for Real's ability to win and for their trainer ...
