It's time for Eden Hazard to show what he is made of. It is no coincidence that his national team are called the 'Red Devils' and this is what he will have to become.
Because Real Madrid hope for a lot more than a final in Istanbul. It is, literally, hell. The Turk Telekom Arena will welcome Hazard and his team once again.
The fact that a stadium earns the nickname 'hell' is no coincidence. But the Madrid team trust in their main man. In that desire that after several attempts in the final, he managed to enlist in the White team.
This past Saturday's defeat against Mallorca was something more than a wake-up call. Without the Belgian on th epitch and with several changes to the squad, they were lack-lustre and lacked ideas.
But, he is back for this moment. This is the first final that Hazard will afce. It officially has the name of the 'third Champions League matchday', but in Madrid's eyes, it is their first great challenge.
In addition to winning over the most reluctant public with his signing, it can also help him to make up for the 'sins' committed in the two previous continental competitions against PSG and Brugges.
Only victory is worth it. Anything other than the three points will be a disaster.The Turkish fire waits, but the Belgian devil is ready to control it.
