(Reuters) - Real Madrid forward Cristiano Ronaldo is confident he will go down in history as one of the sport's best players helped by his status as the Champions League's all-time top scorer. The three-time FIFA Ballon d'Or winner has netted 93 goals in Europe's elite club competition, including five hat-tricks. "I always felt that I was a special player... I've always worked hard, believed in my potential and I've developed more and more as a player, as a person, as a human being." Ronaldo has 16 Champions League goals this season, the most by any player in a single campaign, which has propelled 10-times European Cup winners Real to a semi-final with Manchester City.
