Cristiano Ronaldo’s backheel goal vs Valencia
At no. 7 is an incredible piece of improvisation by Ronaldo, which has attracted around five million views, and it’s not without a good reason. in this video, the player makes a small movement away from the goal to avoid his marker. With Angel Di Maria’s cross in front of him, just a flick of Ronaldo’s right foot changes the ball’s direction and pushes it home off his heel. It was undoubtedly a great and well-timed, but its main attraction is that it was a last minute equaliser.

Barcelona 1 – 3 Real Madrid – Copa del Rey 2013 semi-final second leg
At the 5th position on the list is the semi-final second leg match of Copa del Rey in 2013, in which Jose Mourinho’s team secured their place in a domestic tournament final with a greatly executed counter-attacking display. Cristiano Ronaldo managed a half penalty, after which he went on to finish off a Angel di Maria-led break in the second half. That closed the tie after Real’s 2-0 win in the first leg, but Raphael Varane scored a third goal, just to ensure the victory.
Gerard Pique neddling Ronaldo
At the second place on the list is one of the dozens of examples of skullduggery which can be seen in every Clasico. What makes this one moment quite amusing is that CR7 had not been on the pitch for even a minute when Pique decided to chop him down. As a result, Pique was booked. The Barcelona player then manages to speak a couple of words in Ronaldo’s ear who seems to be struggling to keep a straight face.
