Cristiano Ronaldo stuns the soccer fans with his ridiculous bicycle-kick goal during the first leg of Real Madrid’s Champions League quarterfinal match at Juventus.

As for Ronaldo, even Juventus fans rose and gave him a standing applause.
Ronaldo responded by putting his hand to his heart and giving a slight bow of gratitude to the crowd.
"It is one of the great goals you will see in football." said Zinedine Zidane
"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," he further added.
"Cristiano Ronaldo is different. He's a different player to everyone else and he always has this desire to do something extraordinary in the Champions League. He never rests on his laurels.
"His overhead kick was remarkable, yet he missed two much easier chances. That's football."
Ronaldo has been on a goalscoring streak of 19 goals in his last nine games for Real -- 28 in 2018 -- a feat which even Zidane has said makes him jealous.
He has now scored 16 goals in his past 10 Champions League games -- 14 goals this season and a double in last year's final against Juventus.
He holds the record for Champions League goals scored with 119.
