Why Real Madrid star Eden Hazard must prove himself against PSG

Real Madrid will kick off their Champions League campaign against PSG on Wednesday night and the rest of world will be expecting to see a mind blowing game.

One man everybody will be watching is Madrid's $150m acquisition Eden Hazard who will be expected to take the game by the scruff of the net and single handily win the game like his predecessor Cristiano Ronaldo did in the past.

Ronaldo is the greatest goalscorer the world have ever seen, a role model kids around the world should emulate. He always preaches: 'Talent alone won't take you anyway but, hard work and commitment are the key ingredients to the success'.

Without doubt, Hazard possess similar qualities to Ronaldo, maybe not in physique and aerial prowess but when it comes to pace, dribbling skills, stamina and goals, Hazard is just as good as Ronaldo.

On Wednesday night, Hazard will have to prove himself to the watching world that he is not of waste of money but rather a foundation in which Madrid can build their next Galaticos.

Madrid's aim this season is simple, they want to wrestle the Champions League off Liverpool and win it for a club record 14th time. But doing that won't be easy, they need all their players to be fit and motivated.

PSG might look powerful on paper but the reality is that the Ligue 1 champions are average without their sensational front three- Neymar, Kylian Mbappe and Edinson Cavani who unfortunately will miss Madrid clash due to injuries and suspension.

Without those front three, PSG is weak which is an added advantage to Eden Hazard who has to showcase his undisputed talent to the watching world. Let's hope he those.
