You might remember the name Eero Markkanen.

He was the Real Madrid striker who responded in style to claims he was let go by the Spanish club for being overweight. It seems the Finnish frontman, now back in his homeland with RoPS, is still keeping an eye on his former team's progress in Europe. After watching Cristiano Ronaldo open the scoring against Malmo in the Champions League, Markkanen had some words for the Portugal international. https://twitter.com/eeromarkkanen/status/649305794098372608 The 24-year-old had played against Malmo during his time at AIK in Sweden, a short spell which convinced Los Merengues to bring him into their second string. But when Ronaldo added a second, equalling Madrid's all-time goalscoring record, Markkanen had no option but to concede defeat. https://twitter.com/eeromarkkanen/status/649321378320117760
