Speaking in Zurich after last night’s FIFA World Player of the Year Awards, Cristiano Ronaldo revealed his dream Champions League final would be against Real's arch-rivals Barcelona.

“I hope to see Barca in the Champions League final and win," Ronaldo is quoted as saying by Elmundo Deportes.

Following last night’s Gala in Switzerland, 'CR9' traveled to Uzbekistan where his appearance attracted no fewer than 20,000 fans to greet the Real Madrid star.

Ronaldo delighted his adoring fans by offering young children some tactical tips before showing them his free-kick technique.

The 2008 FIFA World player of the Year also met with Football Federation of Uzbekistan and attended the country’s Football Museum.

The appearance was scheduled to show support and provide publicity for the foundation that is developing a program to support football clubs for children.
