The world surrenders at the feet of Luso after the pirouette against Juventus. The both is already listed as one of the best in history. For CR7 there are no impossible.
Chilean of ten points, not a single mole. The technical gesture of Cristiano Ronaldo in his Chilean is impeccable and the lapidary reaction of Gianluigi Buffon, who was paralyzed like a statue, the product of the delicate, but forceful ways of the five-time winner of the Golden Ball.
A pirouette that lays bare a broth of Portuguese virtues. A footballer who since the first day has strived to be better than the day before, has no roof and retains the same thirst for insatiable self-improvement that he had when he was a teenager who ran away at night to work overtime in the gym, I was very thin. These are the physical data of both that expose the technical skill of the Portuguese.
The European hit the ball at a height of 2.38 meters - the arc measures 2.44 - and rose harmoniously at 1.41 meters from the ground. Mattia De Sciglio (1.82 meters), who jumped in a frustrated attempt to defend the play, looks very far behind Cristiano's jump.
The striker, who also became the first player in history to score in 10 consecutive Champions League games, stretched his leg almost one meter (97 centimeters) to hit the ball in a center of Dani Carvajal that seemed very high, it seemed . An action in which he also demonstrated his flexibility. Pure gym work.
Perfection, the title of the painting. Signature: CR7. A goal that is already cataloged as one of the best in history and that Cristiano declared as the best of his career. After the goal, the fans of Juventus stopped to applaud him. The Luso, more surprised by the reaction of the public than by his Chilean, limited himself to thanking.
"I have to thank the fans of Juventus, what they did was fantastic and I had never experienced anything like that in my career, it's the best goal I've scored," said the Portuguese international after the game.
The world surrenders at the feet of Christian
"Cristiano does things sometimes that only he can do, it can be said that it is one of the most beautiful goals in the history of football," said the coach after the first leg of the quarterfinals of the Champions League. Madrid ended up winning 3-0.
Zidane pulled out his teaser vein to declare later: "My Glasgow goal was nicer than Cristiano's", remembering that goal that Zidane scored in the Scottish city final against Bayer Leverkusen (2-1) and that gave the ninth Champions to the white team.
Massimiliano Allegri, the Juventus coach, said: "I do not know if Ronaldo's goal is the best in football history, but it's really an extraordinary goal, you can only congratulate him on what he's doing in the present." On the ovation of the audience, Allegri said: "The applause is a beautiful lesson from the 'tifosi' of Juventus to the whole world, football is a show, when you have 22 or 30 high level players and you see a shot like this one It's good to applaud. "
The Brazilian Casemiro highlighted that "Ronaldo trains like a machine and surprises everyone in every training". The captain Sergio Ramos coincided in qualifying the action of "golazo". "It's very good for me to see the movement of the Chilean and he gets the prize of recognition from the public, he will be one of the thousands he has put in".
"We can only applaud him and give his best for everything he does for us season after season, he has been impressive today, he is the best," he added. "The goal of Ronaldo is impressive, a goal that deserves the applause, as the stadium did," said Real Madrid goalkeeper Keylor Navas.
Carvajal, the author of the center that topped Ronaldo, simplified the flattery: "The applause of the tie to Cristiano says it all". Even rivals surrender to the action of the Portuguese. "We have seen what Ronaldo is, with Leo Messi he is achieving the greatest achievements," said Italian goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon.
"They can be compared to Maradona and Pele, by the way they are able to decide matches and win trophies for their teams," added the 40-year-old goalkeeper.
"When you play against one of the best players in the world, like Cristiano Ronaldo, you need perfection, if you leave space he punishes you, and then he has invented a goal that will remain in history. lamented defender Andrea Barzagli.
The goal is already around the world and many are those who have reacted on social networks "Cristiano Ronaldo can leave the Earth and start playing against the Martians, here he has done everything!" Tweeted the Real Madrid player Álvaro Arbeloa "What a goal," Falcao published with a picture of the pirouette.
Former English striker Gary Lineker, current BBC commentator, tweeted: "I've seen a lot of goals in my life, but this one from Ronaldo is absolutely impressive."
Not only the world of football is talking about the goal of Cristiano Ronaldo. NBA star Lebron James posted the action photo on Instagram and MotoGP world champion Marc Márquez, a well-known Barcelona player, admitted: "Bufff what a great goal for CR7 !!!".
Some pulled humor to talk about the action, like the Stoke City striker Peter Crouch: "Only a few can do this," he wrote on social networks remembering a Chilean who scored Galatasaray when he played at Liverpool.
