JAKARTA - James Rodriguez said he wanted Liverpool to beat Real Madrid in the Champions League final.
The Colombian attacking midfielder played for Los Blancos between 2014 and 2020. However, he said he would support Liverpool for compatriot Luis Diaz.
"Liverpool are playing really well and they have 'Luchito' Diaz, and I want Lucho to win trophies," James said in a Twitch interview with Jaime Echenique quoted by Marca, Friday, May 13.
However, he acknowledged the great difficulty Real Madrid would give the Reds.
"Real Madrid are very strong in this game," admitted James.
"We've seen it in the quarter-finals and semi-finals."
