Recognise greatness
In Real Madrid’s first half against Juventus, Cristiano Ronaldo became the first player to score in 10 consecutive Champions League matches.
He got in at the near post in the third minute and banged it home.
Then, after an orange and a pep talk at half-time, he came out and did this.
OH. MY. WORD! 😱

Then, the entire Juventus Stadium gave him a standing ovation.
Rightly so.
Yes. Your eyes did not deceive you. You did just witness that. You were on this planet at this point in time. And you should be grateful.
Darren Fletcher on commentary said: “In 24 hours, I still won’t have an adjective for that goal.”
“We have run out of superlatives for Real Madrid’s number 7.”
Me too mate.
Gary Lineker said: “It was like time stood still.”
