Cristiano Ronaldo describes 'magic' wonder goal vs Juventus
Real Madrid made history by winning their third successive Champions League title this season when they defeated Liverpool in the final.
But one of the goals of the tournament came from superstar striker Ronaldo during the quarter-finals.
Real Madrid took control of their last four match with an impressive 3-0 win over Juventus during the first leg of the semi-final.
Ronaldo struck twice during the game – first after just three minutes – but his second left Juve stunned.
Dani Carvajal floated a cross to Ronaldo and with his back to the goal, the Portugal ace dispatched a perfectly-executed bicycle kick.
“I saw the ball very high,” Ronaldo said discussing his wondergoal.
“I say maybe I’m not going to touch the ball but I’m going to try and I touch and they way I touch the ball go straight and strong.
“When I touched the floor I saw the ball inside the net.
“I say wow I did [it]. It was a surprise but in the same time it don’t surprise me because I’ve tried for a long time but to score in the game – in the quarter-finals – was a magic moment.
“All my life I try to score goals, nice goals and I did so of course it was a unbelievable goal.
“Probably the best goal so far in my career. I feel so proud.”
